Frequently asked questions
What are capsules and how are they taken?▾
Capsules are a dosage form for dietary supplements in which active ingredients are enclosed in a gelatine or cellulose shell. They are usually taken unchewed with sufficient liquid. Capsules offer a taste-neutral, convenient and precisely dosed intake – ideal for on the go or when powder is not desired.
Which capsules are suitable for muscle building?▾
For muscle building, capsules with essential amino acids, BCAA, creatine or protein isolate are particularly suitable. These provide targeted nutrients that the body needs for muscle growth and regeneration. Brands such as Sponser, BioTechUSA and Weider offer specially developed formulas for this purpose that have proven themselves in numerous training programs.
Are capsules better than powder or tablets?▾
Capsules have the advantage over powder of being taste-neutral, precisely dosed and easy to transport. Compared to tablets, capsules usually dissolve more quickly and release their active ingredients faster. Which form is most suitable depends on personal preferences and the specific intended use.
What should I look for when buying capsules?▾
When buying, look for tested quality, transparent ingredient lists and the origin of the raw materials. Certifications such as Swissmedic compliance, GMP standards or the Burgerstein quality seal provide additional assurance. The capsule shell can also be relevant – for example whether gelatine or a plant-based alternative is used.
Which capsules support regeneration after training?▾
After training, capsules with magnesium, zinc, omega fatty acids and antioxidants support regeneration. Glutamine and BCAA capsules also help to reduce muscle soreness and shorten recovery time. A combination of minerals and amino acids has proven particularly effective in sports nutrition.
Are dietary supplements in capsule form safe?▾
Yes, provided they come from established brands and are taken according to the dosage recommendation. In Switzerland, dietary supplements are subject to food legislation and must meet strict safety and quality requirements. If in doubt, it is advisable to consult a doctor or a nutrition specialist.
How do I store capsules properly?▾
Capsules should be stored dry, cool and protected from direct sunlight. The original packaging generally offers the best protection against moisture and light. Some products with sensitive active ingredients such as probiotics or certain vitamins should even be kept in the refrigerator – the manufacturer's instructions are decisive here.
Which capsules are suitable for a vegetarian or vegan diet?▾
Many manufacturers now offer capsules with plant-based shells made of cellulose that do not contain gelatine. The content can also be specifically designed with plant-based active ingredients, such as vegan protein blends, vitamin B12 capsules or dietary supplements based on algae and mushrooms. A look at the packaging reveals whether they are suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets.
