just dissolves into the washing water in your machine and is laid down onto the surface fabric of your clothes.
next time you wear your clothes, all these lovely healthy vitamins and minerals will be absorbed through the skin. there will never be any need to ever worry about food supplements again.
wash
baby clothes separately - their dosage is smaller.

Would different colours of clothing absorb different kinds of vitamins? "I'm feeling a little peeky today - time to wear that orange shirt." |
|
|
Why not go just that little bit further and develop actual food that can be absorbed through the skin? |
|
|
you are probably right, silly. also different fabrics would affect absorption too. read the instructions on the box carefully. |
|
|
If I correctly recall 30 year old biology lessons, vitamins cannot be absorbed through the skin (which also makes vitamin-enhanced skin cream a bit pointless). Nice thought though. |

Damn! I was getting excited over the prospect of an alcohol impregnated hat (alcohol isn't a vitamin?). |
|
|
pretty sure that E can,so why not the others? |
|

I like this - quite reminicent of the towel in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy where it was impregnated with food. This I'm guessing is more passive diffusion into the skin. There is a down side - things may grow on your clothes like mould on bread and it'll look like tie dyed clothes are back in fashion. Not a prospect I'm looking forward to. |

You're probably right, [po]. I never really paid attention in class. |
|
|
You could certainly do this with the lysergics & various nonorganic compounds, on regular clothes. As for vitamins, we-ell, you'd need to find somewhere a little more ah absorbent, which is why this would work extremely well on buttfloss. Plus One, PO. |

the water-based vitamins will dissolve in perspiration and be absorbed into the skin cells by osmosis. |
|
|
I have a sneaking suspicion (and it's not often that my suspicions sneak) that a huge percentage of whatever was in the washing powder would be flushed down the drain in the rinse cycle. The remaining nutrients would be dried onto the cloth in the dryer. |
|
|
In order to be absorbed into the skin, I'm figuring one would have to take the clothing out before the rinse cycle and wear immediately. |
|
|
At first I wasn't sure about this idea because of [CP]'s dissolving comment, but then realized this could be added after the rinse cycle or be added to dryer sheets. + |

someone just pointed out to me that the vermin under the building would benefit the most. but hey I still like it :) |
