Arm Description
The tablet/capsule will be administered as a single dose after 12 hours of fasting. The participants will be monitored during 6 hours for the level of minerals and Multivitamin minerals in the blood, adverse events and vital signs.
The gel will be administrated to the same group of patients in the single dose after 12 hours of fasting. The participants will be monitored during 6 hours for the level of minerals and Multivitamin minerals in the blood, adverse events and vital signs
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Mean fractional absorption
A comparison of mean fractional absorption of the two Multivitamin mineral formulations (gel vs. tablet/capsule).
Secondary Outcome Measures
Absorption rate
A comparison of absorption rate across the two Multivitamin mineral formulations (gel vs. tablet/capsule).

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This clinical study is designed to evaluate difference in the AUC of the absorption of Multivitamin and minerals defined in the protocol
Detailed Description
This clinical study is designed to evaluate difference in the AUC of the absorption of Multivitamin and minerals:
Tablet/capsule administration - up to 20 healthy volunteers will be recruited to the study. The tablet/capsule will be administered as a single dose after 12 hours of fasting. The participants will be monitored during 6 hours for the level of minerals and Multivitamin minerals in the blood, adverse events and vital signs.
Gel administration - the gel will be administrated to the same group of patients in the single dose after 12 hours of fasting. The participants will be monitored during 6 hours for the level of minerals and Multivitamin minerals in the blood, adverse events and vital signs.
