Almost all the things you want to absorb from vitamins and supplements get peed right out. That’s right, apparently, up to 95% of the good stuff goes right down the toilet. Considering how pricey supplements can be, that’s unacceptable! Doctor and mom Mallory Blair agrees, and set about finding a better way for her kids (and everyone else, but maybe especially her kids) to take in all the nutrients they need. So she created one.

Taking a teaspoonful of 2x4 Nutrition’s hyper-absorbable, sugar-free, vegetarian supplements is essentially designed to be the equivalent of mainlining an IV drip of vitamins (with no giant needles involved).

My Journey Over The 2x4 Rainbow

I’ll be the first to admit that the last couple of years have found me, erm, not at the pinnacle of health. My eating (and drinking...) habits haven’t been optimal, and my body has been slogging us along, thankfully, but without much additional support from me. I pop a multivitamin or a couple of pill supplements when I remember, but I’ve always been a little suspect of a little hard-packed pellet really doing much.

So I was excited to give my body some goodness I could see — these liquids are gorgeous. I tasted each supplement in my roster on its own to get the full sense. They are... interesting. Dankly fruity-vegetal. Not candy-esque like gummies (but that’s kind of the point). They taste complex, which seems to indicate many potent ingredients at work. I like having water with a squeeze of lemon to start my day, and dropping several 2x4 buddies in there together magically results in a delicious, fruity blend. (“By your powers combined, I am... a really tasty morning bev!”)

I will also share that, the day after first enjoying a melange of 2x4 supplements, I went on a run for probably the fourth time in my adult life. Now of course there’s no way to know this is a direct correlation, but I found myself puzzled while pulling on gym shorts and tennis shoes and slipping out the door before 9 a.m. Draw your own conclusions. But beyond my body’s response, there’s the whole science-backed, clinical trial support of 2x4’s technology as well.

How 2x4’s Tech Blows Pills & Gummies Away

As I mentioned, 2x4’s founder Dr. Mallory Blair was peeved that the shelves upon shelves of vitamins and supplements in the pharmacy were stacked with things that just don’t work. So she dedicated her time to developing supplements that could actually deliver nutritional benefits to your body in full. Thus, revolutionary Nutristack Liposomal Technology was born.

Nutristack Liposomal Technology is a liquid means of delivering nutrients so the body absorbs 95% of them. Tiny microscopic bubbles wrap the desired nutrients and deliver them directly into your blood, then into your cells. This means they get to work within minutes. Dr. Blair’s tech has been clinically proven to increase nutrient absorption by up to 15x.

There are formulas to fit every lifestyle, tailored for different needs — from the general (multivitamins) to niche (sleep support) — all with the goal of boosting health from the inside out.

The Mom-To-Bloodstream Pipeline

Dr. Blair’s determination and dedication to health is a win for everyone from her kids to your grandma, to anyone that wants more from their vitamins. I’m aiming to do more of that these days, and finding supplements that actually work is an invaluable part of the game, so I appreciated the opportunity to try something different — and delicious.

If you’re planning to try adding a supplement to your diet, it’s always a good idea to talk to your doctor to make sure the vitamins and dosage are right for your nutritional needs.
