How is this done, i mean, for example, supplements that have a short half life. is there a to turn them in to tablets or what ever and time release them some how? for eg, make a supplement have a sustained release over a period of time.

That will only slow the entry into the small intestine (delaying the effects not prolonging them in the constant drip fashion of timed released pharmaceuticals), once there the absorption will be a bit slower but not much. Again not a timed release solution

abosrption would depend on the state of the sub, of course if taking as a powder or liquid form they'll hit the fastest, and pills/tablets take longer to "digest". wish there's a good way to combine the best of two worlds, fast acting but slow releasing

Why don't you mix the powder with water+gelantine, warm it up and let it harden, then cap it?

Why don't you take a small 000 capsule, fill it up, put it into a 00 capsule, fill that up too, and put that into a 0 capsule? How fast does gelantine dissolve? What about the vegetarian stuff?

Stick a gel cap in your mouth and find out, it takes about a minute for me.
It would be nice to find a solution.

Perhaps someone stumbles across an easy to implement idea at www.pharmweb.net or something. Two things I have found are:

I think chitosan is an interesting substance for that......
