And there are some prescription drugs that can increase absorption in a big way if you happen to take them at the same time. A gout drug is one.

Why use a pharmaceutical poison when you can use simple black pepper which is sitting in your kitchen right now?

"Substance in Black Pepper Increases Nutrient Absorption up to Two Thousand Percent "

Putting black pepper on your food may be one of the easiest, most economical ways to boost your overall health status. Piperine, the main alkaloid from black pepper has been shown to substantially increase the bioavailability of the nutrients in foods and supplements. As the quality of food declines and the costs of food and supplements continue to skyrocket, it is increasingly important to your health that the nutrients you consume are able to be used to maximum efficiency by your body.

Don’t get me wrong I am all for man made pharma’s.

Yet I try diet and simple measures, as my first line of attack.

When I was young I was all about going to a doc and getting a pill for what needed a cure.

Then as I aged and have very limited time I started with diet about 15 yrs ago.

Not one one taking capsules for nutrition other than Vit D (PNW neighbor) I eat what I crave right now it is foods high in Vit K.

I have taken man made thyroid for most my life and that is a blessing else I would not be here (no thyroid gland) but boy that is such a huge hormonal and how the body processes everything else that I just don’t mess with it by mixing up to much.

If God willing I can do it via diet first then so be it.

I don’t have to cook/make meals for anyone other than myself so if I want to say drink dark cherry juice and do a fast for the occasional gout attack to lower those uric acid levels I am free to do so.
