Gummies Versus Capsules

Supplements come in many shapes. Two of the most common are capsules and gummies. Neither is better for everyone, so it comes down to what you will actually take.

Capsules

Capsules have no taste and can hold dense formulas, but they need swallowing, which some people dislike.

Gummies

Gummies are chewable and flavored, and many find them more pleasant to take. They are easy to take on the go, since there is nothing to swallow whole.

Choosing

The best format is the one you keep taking. If you tend to forget or dislike pills, a honey-flavored gummy like HoneyBoost can make the habit easier. Check the label for serving size, since gummy servings are usually two at a time.
