Why is it that we are meant to take vitamins and supplements but then they cannot be absorbed into the body, or have a bad reaction like causing bloating, gas, and/or other issues?

Ideally we don’t get vitamins and minerals from supplements, but instead we get them from the food we eat. Supplements are intended to makeup for any deficiencies your diet may have. Often, supplements are made with cheaper ingredients that may technically contain the necessary compounds but not always in the most bioavailable from. Consumers don’t understand such nuances, and just look at the label to see the amounts/percentages the supplements contain.
