  • The Patch Science

    • Patches offer a clean and additive-free method of delivering nutrients, free from colors, flavors, and other substances.
    • Apart from the adhesive itself, patches do not contain anything other than the ingredients itself (the good stuff). 
    • This additive-free formulation makes patches an ideal choice for individuals who prioritize purity and want to minimize their exposure to artificial additives in their supplementation regimen.
  • The Pill & Gummy Science

    • Be it natural or artificial, pills and gummies contain additives such as colors, flavors, and fillers to enhance taste, appearance, and shelf life. 
    • While these additives are generally regarded as safe for consumption, some individuals may experience gastrointestinal discomfort.
    • The presence of these additives means that users are consuming not only the intended nutrients but also unnecessary additional ingredients that their body does not require.

up to 80% of oral supplements do not get absorbed

Nutrient Absorption

Up to 80% of the supplements you consume orally are not absorbed by your body

  • The Patch Science

    • Transdermal patches deliver vitamins directly through the skin, bypassing the digestive system altogether.
    • The skin's outermost layer, the stratum corneum, acts as a barrier to protect the body from external substances. Remarkably, it selectively permits molecules weighing less than 500 Daltons to penetrate, facilitating the delivery of essential vitamins into deeper skin layers and eventually into the bloodstream.
    • By avoiding the scenic route through the digestive system, patches ensure efficient absorption of vitamins and minerals, leading to a higher bioavailability.

  • The Pill & Gummy Science

    • Pills and gummies are ingested orally and must pass through the digestive system before nutrients can be absorbed into the bloodstream. 
    • Absorption occurs primarily in the small intestine, where nutrients are broken down by enzymes and absorbed through the intestinal lining into the bloodstream. 
    • However, factors such as stomach acids, digestive enzymes, and individual variations in digestion can affect the efficiency of absorption, leading to low bioavailability.

70% oral supplements do not maintain a stable blood nutrient level

Nutrient delivery consistency

70% oral supplements in the market do not help maintain a stable blood nutrient level

  • The Patch Science

    • Transdermal patches are designed to provide a continuous and controlled release of vitamins over an extended period. 
    • The patch's matrix or reservoir contains a predetermined precise amount of vitamins, which are gradually released into the skin at a controlled rate. 
    • This sustained release ensures a steady supply of vitamins to the bloodstream, maintaining stable nutrient levels and avoiding the peaks and troughs associated with oral supplementation.

  • The Pill & Gummy Science

    • Oral supplements release their ingredients upon dissolution in the stomach or intestines, leading to rapid absorption of nutrients into the bloodstream.
    • However, this rapid release can result in spikes in blood nutrient levels followed by a rapid decline, leading to low absorption and fluctuations in nutrient availability over time.

    • Pills and gummies require swallowing or chewing, which can be cumbersome for some individuals, especially those with swallowing difficulties or aversion to pills. 
    • Additionally, pills and gummies may need to be taken in adherence to dosing schedules and consideration of factors such as before or after meals for optimal absorption.
