Cellulose capsules vs gelatin capsules

[HoagsObject]

I thought I’d share this with the other homemade Kratom capsule users here.
I have found that Kratom in cellulose capsules feels a lot stronger than Kratom in gelatin capsules. I suspect that gelatin negatively impacts bioavailability. Or, perhaps, cellulose capsules somehow enhance bioavailability.

Anyways, if you do homemade Kratom capsules I suggest giving the vegetarian cellulose capsules a try. Cellulose capsules make my Kratom experiences feel stronger.

Good to know. Thank you for posting.

Plus gelatin capsules are made from gelatin which is really disgusting if you look at with gelatin is made out of. So just for the simple fact that Vegetable caps are a lot healthier than gelatin caps would make me want to choose the vegetable caps. But the idea that they enhance the kratom is interesting

Your claim that vegetarian capsules are healthier than
gelatin capsules is questionable. I am a dietary vegan
so I wish it were true, but, after doing my own research
I have to concede that gelatin capsules are probably the
More "natural" choice. I use gelatin capsules and that is the only animal product that I ingest.

It is my understanding that vegetarian capsules are slower to dissolve and may not release contents until in the intestine depending on stomach contents when taken. I've always used gelatin for the faster dissolve. I could certainly be mistaken.

Maybe your right but for me vegetarian capsules hit way harder than gelatin

I haven’t tried gelatin but I will say I try not to take caps unless I’m on the go because the effects end up being half as strong.

I did an experiment again today with gelatin capsules and vegetarian capsules. Unless there is some other variable I haven’t taken into account I am almost absolutely certain that vegetarian capsules work better than gelatin. Once again, my “burn” feels way stronger when using vegetarian capsules. I hope you benefit from this knowledge.
