"Results showed that every brand tested below 100% potency, except for NOW’s own product....Each brand was assessed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet light detection (HPLC-UV) by NOW in its in-house lab as well as the industry leading contract laboratory Alkemist Labs."
The above stinks....like BS...absorption in the body must be evaluated, not by the methods indicated above. Only claim being made is the potency, as based upon our testing methods....not by humans
