Gelatin is a protein that is an essential component of human consumption and development. It is generally considered safe for consumption in pharmaceuticals and food by most regulatory agencies (GRAS). It is GMO-free, completely natural, and non-allergenic. Gelatin capsules are usually derived from beef or pork along with plasticizers such as water and glycerin to provide durability. There are two types of gelatin capsules; hard gelatin capsules for solid substances and soft gelatin capsules. For most manufacturers and users, it has several problems.
Easy to digest
Gelatin capsules are easily digested and dissolved within minutes of reaching the stomach for digestion. This ensures that the drug or supplement in it does not pass through the consumer's digestive system without being absorbed.
Improve bioavailability
According to the Natural Products Insider website, using soft-gel gelatin capsules can improve the bioavailability of poorly absorbed or poorly soluble nutrients. Through stabilization, solubilization, and other techniques, manufacturers can increase the effectiveness of contained nutrients (such as herbs) and supplements (such as CoQ10). Many of these methods are not possible with solid materials.
Take capsules
Gelatin capsules are easier for some people to consume due to their smooth texture. They also mask any horrible taste of internal supplements. For example, most people hate the taste of fish oil but know the benefits it can provide to the body, so capsule alternatives are more convenient.
Cost
Because of the powerful and approved technology of gelatin capsules, the manufacturing cost of making gelatin shells is low. In contrast, HPMC technology has higher investment costs and involves complexity.
