What's the value you buy on vitamins/supplements ?

What' the value you buy on vitamins? You may do a test on your vitamin purchased and see the result. I have conducted a test on Usana fish oil and see the pictures. A drop of Usana fish oil causes styrofoam melt.



Why does the oil in BiOmega (fish oil) dissolve Styrofoam?

The fish oil and Styrofoam observation is merely a natural reaction between long-chain fatty acids in the fish oil and Styrofoam. Styrofoam is a very non-polar polymer and, due to this chemical property, can easily be dissolved in other non-polar solvents including fish oil and other fats. It is not due to any other ingredient or contaminant in the fish oil, but it is the fish oil fatty acids themselves that react with the Styrofoam. It is basically the principle of "like dissolves like" with reference to polar and non-polar compounds. Our product is not unique in this characteristic, the reason it dissolves Styrofoam quicker than some of the other fish oils is because it is in the ethyl ester form rather than the triglyceride form. The observation that the ethyl ester form of omega-3 fish oil is able to dissolve Styrofoam more quickly compared to the triglyceride form simply reflects the fact the ethyl ester form is more non-polar than the triglyceride form. This does not indicate a health risk, nor does it indicate a benefit, it is simply a matter of chemistry.

Cut apple soaked on a vitamin for 48 hours shows effective of anti-oxidation on the products. The less oxidized is, the less likable of the color of the apple changes. It is an indication of our body cells getting less oxidation after taking vitamins that contains anti-oxidant.


Aging is the result of our cells contains less anti-oxidant produced naturally. Young people has lots of nature anti-oxidant such as, Coenzyme Q10, Glutathione, produced by our body naturally but as humans age, Glutathione levels drop, and the ability to detoxify free radicals decreases. That is why we need to take high quality supplements to protect our body from free radicals. The foods we consumed are not enough to recover our billions of cells in a short period of time. Many people complain   without feeling improvement after taking supplements for weeks. The quality and quantity of supplements are also important. The easy way to take supplements is to choose a good quality of brand. There are 3rd party books tell you how to choose.


Be nice your body and take best care of your body because it is God's creation. The more you care your body, the less chance you will get degenerative diseases and live happy every day.
