Vegetable capsules retain the advantages of traditional gelatin capsules: easy to take, effective in masking taste and odor, transparent and visible contents, etc. Moreover, compared with gelatin capsules, vegetable capsules have a tight molecular structure, strong sealing, and are not easy to breathe, which effectively avoids the oxidation reaction of the drug in contact with air, and is not easy to breed bacteria, and does not need to add carcinogens such as ethylene oxide, nor does it need to be irradiated and sterilized.

 

The vegetable capsules are all made of plant ingredients, which are harmless to the body, and also have nutrients, and are also effective for diabetes and high blood pressure.

Observe the burning phenomenon: Burn the two capsules separately, the vegetable capsule produces the smell of burning cotton, and the gelatin capsule produces the smell of burning protein (similar to the smell of burning hair).
