vitamins, absorption, your dosages

[qbkilla]

How many vitamins do you guys take each day? I have read that anywhere from 2% to 30% actually gets absorped. So if i take 15g of vitamin C per day, im actually getting only 5g at best. I know Bill Romanowski would take his Vitamins by IV, and i used the search and have seen some guys on here do the same and swear by it, but for me and IV isn't really a realstic option at this point. I was wondering some of your vitamin dosages and weather you chew the tabs (some say chew them or you will shit them out, others say dont chew them they need to stay coated to survive stomach acid??)

For me..

CVS multi---4 a day
C...15ga day
calcium 2000mg a day
magnesium 1000mg a day
B ...2xb100 per day
acidophilus (sp) 2 a day
Vit d3....1600iu a day
zinc 100mg per day

Some seem like alot (the 15g of C), but if only a third of that at best is getting asborped Its not really that much.
