The concept of vitamin pills is simple. You swallow a pill that contains vitamins and other nutrients, just like foods contain vitamins and other nutrients. Then, you digest and absorb those compounds, just like you would if you got the nutrients from foods. That all makes sense.

You need to give your body more than 30 essential nutrients just to stay alive. Many other compounds are known to support health in the body. It is not always possible or practical to get everything you need for optimal health from the foods you eat. That is where dietary supplements come in, but what if you could go a step further?
