What are the advantages of LFA Vegetarian Capsules?
Derived from non-GMO plants, ideal for vegan diets.
Why Pullulan over HPMC capsules?
Pullulan is derived from tapioca and digests in the stomach for quick release formulas. It protects sensitive ingredients from oxidation. This is the best option to avoid cross-linking with ingredients.
Why HPMC over Pullulan capsules?
HPMC is derived from wood pulp and digests in the lower GI tract for delayed release formulas. HPMC naturally has enteric properties without the need for a coating. This is the best option for pH-sensitive probiotics and enzymes.
