Maximum Absorption
(NO DCP!)
Each batch of our tablets and capsules must pass a rigorous disintegration test to ensure proper breakdown and absorption within the human body.
If you are a person with a weakened digestive system (a problem that many people age 50+ unknowingly have), you may not properly break down and absorb rock hard tablets from other companies. What good is taking vitamins, minerals and herbs if you are not digesting them? Digestion of tablets is such a problem that there are stories about tons of undigested tablets found in city sewer systems. Some claim that these ultra hard tablets still have the logo of the manufacturer visible. True or not, absorption is certainly an issue that must be addressed. Avoid DCP! Di-calcium phosphate (DCP) is commonly used as a tablet binder and capsule filler; we call it "cement." It is possible to make a tablet without using DCP, however, softer tablets without DCP binders can result in increased breakage in manufacturing, creating more waste and a higher cost of production. Therefore, many companies continue to use DCP because it saves them time and money.
My father pioneered the
No-DCP crusade 30 years ago after reviewing hundreds of Hair Mineral Analysis reports. These reports seemed to confirm his suspicion that tablets and capsules using added DCP and other difficult to digest calcium’s may be partially responsible for excess calcium in the tissues and joints, which causes stiffness, joint issues, circulation problems and premature aging.
Healthy Habits® contends that dietary supplement formulas that use soft matrix technology without DCP as a filler or binder will break down faster, absorb better and produce better and faster results than those that do, therefore, our formulas never contain DCP capsule fillers or tablet binders.
