Slim Xtreme half life....?

Slim Xtreme is a blend of several ingredients, all with different particle sizes, and some of which aren't significantly water soluble. Moreover, it tastes disgusting.
Lastly, the capsules are packed with a unique nano-dispersion technology. Very basically, the ingredients are layered inside the capsule to give it that time-released effect that lasts all day. If you take out out of the capsule, it loses a lot of this characteristic. Packing these things into those little layers isn't exactly the cheapest process to do, and seeing as that makes it's way into the final price, you've already paid for this process to be done, why throw it out by breaking open the capsule?
Can you give me some more reasoning as to your logic behind doing this? The only rationale I can think of for such a thing would be if you feel it is too strong for you. In such an instance, I would recommend dissolving in everclear, and dosing with an eyedropper. Ethanol is a better solvent and it has a lot more of inert characteristics; whereas, water can function as an oxidizer in such instances.

Are you talking about the orange capsule or some capsule inside the powder (white prehaps ?)
----------------------
You look like you are talking about the orange capsule, if so there's a couple of thing I do not understand:
I've played with taking fractional dose for the whole last week and didn't notice any effects (vs closed cap) that I didn't attributed to the dosage (except it kick a bit faster, and may last a bit less but I'm not exactly sure)
Do you have any description of the effects one would feel using the proper layered powder vs opening it ?
Also I don't really see the link between between "slow layered dispersion" and "first thing in the morning on empty stomach". If the capsule stay in the stomach/intestine and slowly dissolve, then wouldn't they end up having the same effect later in the day ? Why would the morning absorption of the slow dose affect the whole day ?

Slim Xtreme capsules come in only one color.
I think you've answered your own question. It goes away faster.
Moreover, how can you compare a partial dose versus the entire dose?
Why wouldn't morning absorption affect the whole day?
The formula is designed to slowly put itself into your bloodstream throughout the day, offering a very stable concentration over time.

Thanks you for taking the time to answer...
Although it's not exactly what I was looking for...
My wording was perhaps a bit confusing
The theory I had was that time release adbe was actually an ingredient inside the orange capsule. That was what I was referring too when talking about the white capsule
>> How can you compare a partial dose versus the entire dose?
Perceived stimulation effect and perceived duration ?
Another thing I tried was to open a cap and shallow the content along with the two half caps. Yes duration was a bit shorter but 2 hours max, nothing like twice the effect and half the duration...
>> Why wouldn't morning absorption affect the whole day?
I dunno, I was thinking along the line that eventually the effect of the first wave of release wear off, so the effect of condition of ingestion of that wave wear off too

Yes the time release is on the molocule level and has nothing to do with the gel cap. As illustrated here (however multiple ingredients are time released in the formula not just ADBE) Invalid Link Removed Look at the bottom for the ADBE te drawing.
