Different forms of Health Supplements

At Dr Michael Gazsi's Essential Nutrients our supplements come in several forms - from tablets to capsules, to powder and liquid.

For Tablets and Caplets, the main advantages is the price as tablets and caplets are the cheapest to manufacture. However, tablets and caplets may not always dissolve as well as they should. Also, the tableting material - that is, the glue that holds the tablet together, can decrease the absorption of the nutrients and irritate the stomach. We don't recommend taking any supplements in this form unless absolutely necessary.

Capsules are generally much easier for people to swallow and are much more readily absorbable than their tablet form. Also, they rarely irritate the stomach - which is a bonus. 

Softgels are very easy to swallow and they absorb quickly with no interference. They are generally used for oil-based nutrients that cannot be dried and used in capsules.

Powders give a number of benefits over pills and these include better absorption. Powder are great when a higher therapeutic dosage is needed. You can mix some powder in water or juice instead of taking a capsule.

Like powders, liquids are easy to swallow and are very well absorbed. Our range of homeopathic drops are among the fastest acting supplements available.
