Veggie Cap Crap — How Supplements Can Harm You

Veggie cap composition can cause stomach discomfort, gas, bloating, and diarrhea. If you have ever felt oversensitive to certain supplements, the capsule that contains them may be the culprit. So-called ‘vegetable capsules’ were created in a misguided attempt to replace those nasty, animal-based gelatin capsules that supplements used to come in. This move has been more harmful than helpful, because ‘veggie caps’ are not as natural as the supplement manufacturers want you to believe.

NOW FOR THE SHOCKER

All of the following sentiments about veggie caps are absolutely untrue!

“Veggie caps are easily digested.”

“Veggie caps are all natural.”

“Veggie caps are soooo much better for you than gelatin caps.”

These are marketing-based claims designed to feed the oversimplified beliefs of the “plants are cleaner” crowd.
