How easily do these dissolve? The reason I ask would take way to long to explain, but basically I'm wondering if you were to drop one of these in a mildly acidic beverage (juice, soda, etc.), would it dissolve after a while? I'm not worried about it happening within moments or anything, but if it dissolved within a day or so that'll work. Thanks for any info! How easily do these dissolve?

I think they would. as I put a empty in my mouth and it started breaking down

If you put it in any beverage, or any beverage in it, I imagine that its integrity will be compromised in minutes. They melt in my mouth, for the most part.

I have never tested this. I have heard that a piece of a hot dog will dissolve overnight in a glass of Coca-Cola, and these are the same material that is used for most over the counter capsules and are designed to dissolve in the stomach. I would think that any mildly acidic solution would dissolve them, possible even pure water. Use a capsule of something you have bought at the drug store and test it out. I think these use the animal based material instead of the vegetable based.

Hello, I don't think they will dissolve and not a jelly bean. They are like the little cinnamon heart candy's that come out around valentines day.Hope that helps you.

You know, I've always simply assumed that they dissolved in the stomach...but for a definitive answer, I suggest contacting the manufacturer's customer service at gardenoflife.com and asking them directly.

personally I think the drops are way better. I tried first with a bottle of the the pills and I didn't see any results really but the the drops I saw the results even on a week that I wasn't working out. you just have to take the drops right don't drink them put them under your tongue and let them disolve the of all the way. you will know in ages of because you're so ill just be saliva in your mouth once the kind of sweet flavor is gone takes about 3 minutes roughly sometimes more.

Hey Exquisitus, first you should know, a dropper is not included as far as how many drops you need i don't know that right now but i will definitely get back to you if you still want to know after you read this. After about 15min they say the water is safe to drink, but to kill everything you need to wait 2-3 hrs. If your looking to do long hikes and things like that i would recommend getting a gravity filter. These (in my opinion) are better than the water drops, work almost instantly, and kill the same amount of bacteria. I hope this helps!

If you shake it well for a few seconds it dissolves right away. I use this in my plastic bottle and haven't seen any residue when its close to empty.

Not really, but they do dissolve in your mouth. Their intent is to change the pH in your mouth.

it does dissolve, but I dont much like the taste. What I do is put it into capsules. I have a capsule machine (manual) which will do50 capsules at a time.

These are tiny, and also, will dissolve easily in a few moments. They don't seem to dissolve in water, but in your mouth they will. I'm referring to the tablets, not the capsules.

We followed the instructions and practically we forgot about them. I believe they dissolve with watering and with the rain. We did it last 2013 fall, so we have not seen anything different yet. I just bought another box.

It's a combination of both soluble and unsoluble fiber, so it won't dissolve completely. It does blend well enough with the water to make a soupy slurry that's easy to drink. I just use water and a spoon. Every once in a while the final gulp will contain a few piece of seeds of fiber, but a single rinse of the mouth is all it ever takes to get rid of it. For the most part it stirs into water quickly, evenly, and is easy to drink.

Hello Frances, I cannot swallow pills at all and these are quite large in my opinion. But, good news - just let them dissolve in your mouth. They break down quickly, have no taste, a bit "sandy" in texture. The exterior is chewy. I have no problems at all with my throat seizing up when I let the softgels dissolve. Great product from a fine company.

I've been using Glucolift for about a year. They dissolve pretty quickly compared to other brands I've tried. You can always buy a single bottle just to try them out

Never tried to dissolve them in water. I don't think they would. If they did, it would take too long.

Not sure I understand the question, but if you are wanting to know how long you can store it for (unopened), I would guess that you would probably want to consume it within a few months to no more than a year, just like regular soda. These are small bottles, in comparison to the giant soft drinks that we are served nowadays, so you might want to order extras, just in case. These were a hit as favors at my wedding. Enjoy! :)

I'm not sure how well it dissolves in water, because I just throw the powder in a cup of water and swirl it around for about 30 seconds and drink it. When I do it that way, there is a bit of grit at the bottom. So it dissolves to a degree, but I'm sure if you spent a little more time with it and put in a thick juice or something, it would be fine.Taste is pretty bitter. I just drink it straight with water, but I can see how some people would not want to do it. Kinda has a fishy smell. Taste is bitter with a strangely kinda sweet aftertaste after a while.

This bottle us very large, about twice as large as the last soda container I used. I noticed it right off by the weight if the bottle when empty. But I haven't noticed it only fizzing only half the bottle. I do try to use it within 2 days as the fizz tends to weaken after sitting around more than that. If I have it laying around longer than 2 days, I actually push the nozzle to dump the water as I want to keep it fresh and clean as possible. I actually like the smaller container as not as heavy and doesn't take as much water. But it tajes the same charger whether either container. When I refill a new batch, I usually shake it like 20-30 times and use realky cold water which makes it fizz better. This bottle us very large, about twice as large as the last soda container I used.
