Something I read was that the ND formulation is instantly absorbed with no digestion required. Don't know if it's true or not...or if other vitamins assimilate differently.
That's what I read to. In the human world, I know things can be chealated differently. But I can't help but wonder, if it isn't absorbed say sublingual, then it does still go into the digestive tract.. with water or straight. But so does the other liquid vitamins I have. I have to wonder if they do the same thing but aren't touted by other companies because maybe they haven't done the research to see how the uptake was? So it doesn't compare itself to other liquid supplements but to intake of feed which requires digestion to uptake the nutrient.

And what bugs me is I can't find the nutritional value or ingredient list... just testamonials. The birds I bought nutridrench for were not in nearly the same sad shape as the previous ones, so I have no side by side comparison. (even then, different chicks will respond differently to the same med just like us) Since I have it I will use it when needed, but not sure I would spend 3 times as much for the Nutridrench over the other product I have. However I might do a split test if I ever do end up with failing (shipped) chicks in the future.
I also wonder how they can claim 99% utilization, if in theory a body will only utilize what it needs and excrete the rest?
Sorry, I am very much an attention to detail type person... and I wanna know the whole TRUTH, even if I don't like it.
