Diso® Strips - Easy and convenient - Rapid absorption

Struggling with large capsules or slow-absorbing tablets? Diso® Strips offer a different approach to daily supplementation — dissolvable oral strips designed for rapid nutrient delivery.

Gagging on your third capsule of the morning? Or worse — you bought a tub of good vitamins in January and it's still half-full because swallowing pills is a daily mini-battle? You're not alone. Plenty of customers in our stores tell us the same thing: the supplement isn't the problem, the swallowing is.

That's exactly the gap Diso® Strips fill. No water, no pills, no excuses — a thin strip that dissolves on your tongue in seconds, with absorption that works 3–4 times faster than traditional supplements. Here's our honest take on the range: who each strip is for, and which one we'd start with.

What we'd suggest

  • If you only buy one: the Multi-Vitamin with Cranberry — a solid daily baseline for anyone who hates pills.
  • Heading into SA's winter flu season: Vitamin C with Elderberry — keep a pack in your bag from May onwards.
  • For the 3pm slump: the Energy strips — B vitamins plus a dash of caffeine. Take it mid-morning, not after lunch, or it'll cost you sleep.
  • Give them 4–6 weeks of daily use before judging — strips absorb fast, but nutrition still works on body time, not load-shedding-schedule time.

Who are Diso®?

Diso® make high-absorption vitamin and mineral strips designed so that nothing your body needs goes to waste. Instead of a pill that has to survive your stomach first, the strip dissolves on your tongue — quick, tasty and absorbed 3–4 times faster than traditional supplements.

Why we like them at One Life Health:

  • Easy and convenient: slip a pack into your bag or pocket and take them anywhere — in traffic, at your desk, at the school gate.
  • Rapid absorption: the Absorbatec delivery system is designed for the highest absorption possible, even when your digestion isn't at its best.
  • No water required: which means no more "I'll take it later" — the habit actually sticks.

DISO Curcumin with Orange — heart health, made easy

DISO Curcumin with Orange dissolvable strips

Your heart is the pump that keeps every other organ supplied with oxygen and nutrients — and curcumin, the active compound that made turmeric famous, may help address general inflammation in the body — and your heart is particularly sensitive to it.

These strips use Curcuwin®, a clinically studied extract with 46 times greater relative absorption than standard curcumin — important, because ordinary curcumin is notoriously poorly absorbed. Studies on this standardised curcumin suggest support for recovery and post-exercise comfort.

  • High bioavailability and absorption
  • Vegan and sugar free
  • Fast, easy and convenient — no water required

DISO Vitamin D3 & K2 with Raspberry — the bone duo

DISO Vitamin D3 and K2 dissolvable strips

Here's the part most people miss: you can drink all the milk you like, but without enough vitamin D3 and K2, your body struggles to actually absorb and use that calcium. These two vitamins are the unlock — D3 gets calcium into your blood, K2 directs it into your bones and teeth where it belongs.

The D3 here is Vitashine™ — a special oily extract of lichen, naturally rich in cholecalciferol, and the world's only Vegan Society-registered vitamin D3. It's pesticide-free, organically grown and sustainably sourced. Beyond bones, D3 supports normal immune function, daily mood and heart health — and it's tough to get from food alone, especially through an indoor office winter.

  • High bioavailability and absorption
  • Vegan and sugar free
  • Fast, easy and convenient — no water required

DISO Energy with Strawberry — for the 3pm wall

DISO Energy dissolvable strips

When you're running low on energy, everything feels like a chore — even the things you enjoy. These strips combine B vitamins 5, 6 and 12, which help your body convert food into usable energy, with a dash of caffeine for that extra spring in your step.

  • Bursting with sweet strawberry flavour
  • Improves and replenishes energy levels
  • Dairy-free, gluten-free and sugar-free
  • Suitable for vegans and vegetarians

An honest note from us: if you need these every single day just to function, the strips will help — but also look at your sleep, stress and iron levels. Constant exhaustion isn't a supplement problem.

DISO Hapi Tum Probiotics Berry Blast — a happy gut, literally

DISO Hapi Tum probiotic dissolvable strips

Research increasingly shows a direct link between gut health and mental wellbeing — so "a healthy gut is a happy gut" is more than a slogan. When your digestive system is working at its best, you absorb more of the nutrients in your food while fighting off infections and illness.

Hapi-Tum combines probiotics to restore balance to your gut microbiome, digestive enzymes to support the breakdown of food, and apple cider vinegar to help regulate stomach acid — with mixed berries to make it genuinely pleasant to take. Give it 4–6 weeks of daily use for the full effect.

DISO Multi-Vitamin with Cranberry — the everyday baseline

DISO Multi-Vitamin dissolvable strips

One strip, most of the bases covered: vitamin C for growth and repair, B vitamins for healthy red blood cells and energy, iodine for thyroid health, magnesium — nature's tranquiliser — for muscles and mind, vitamin A for eyes and skin, and vitamin K for blood clotting and bone strength.

  • High bioavailability and absorption
  • Vegan and sugar free
  • Fast, easy and convenient — no water required

DISO Vitamin C with Elderberry — your winter wingman

DISO Vitamin C with Elderberry dissolvable strips

There's nothing worse than catching a cold — except being flattened for a week by a proper flu. These strips pack vitamin C for everyday immune maintenance, beta glucans to activate immune cell responses, and elderberry extract — partly for the flavour, mostly because it's a powerhouse of vitamins and antioxidants with antiviral properties that can ease the symptoms of a stubborn cold or flu.

  • High bioavailability and absorption
  • Vegan and sugar free
  • Fast, easy and convenient — no water required
