Question: from Terry

You may think this is silly, but if I daily drink all the water my Dr. says I should, won’t my supplements be flushed out of my system before they have an opportunity to be absorbed?

Answer: from Warren Matthews of Xtend-Life

It’s a reasonable question Terry. Even if you drink excess water, and I am sure your Doc is not suggesting that, it will not affect the bio-availability of the nutrients from our supplements. The tablet will still follow the same ‘course’…through the stomach and into the upper intestine where the nutrients are released and then pass through the intestinal wall into the blood stream.

If water impacted negatively to any extent on that process you would become very ill because it would also flush out other nutrients from your diet. When the nutrients pass into the blood stream and then go on to the liver for processing they are unaffected by the amount of water that you drink.

So, try and drink what your Doc suggests…provided he is not suggesting a gallon a day!! The important thing about water is that it is pure, and you drink a reasonable amount. If you want a bit of taste do what I do and make it hot and dunk a herbal tea bag in it for just a few seconds to give it some flavour.
