The best-absorbed form

A daily intake of sufficient nutrients is essential. However, whether you truly profit will depend on the level of absorption by the body. Plantina therefore always opts for nutrients in their most easily-absorbed form.

Research has for example demonstrated that in the case of selenium, L-selenomethionine is more absorbable than sodium selenite. Iron fumarate is superior to iron sulphate. Minerals bonded to an oxide are best avoided. This is because oxides are insoluble, preventing the mineral from being released in the gastrointestinal tract. For that reason, the products from Plantina for example contain no magnesium oxide or zinc oxide. Vitamin B6 can also exist in different forms. Pyridoxal-5-phosphate is biologically the most active, which is why Plantina has opted for this form.
