Why Pills Don't Fit Modern Life: The Burden of Too Many Capsules
- The morning handful of capsules is a holdover from a slower era — nearly every other part of daily life has been simplified, but the pill routine never was
- The sheer number of capsules required for some nutritional supplement regimens is itself a barrier to long-term adherence
- Difficulty swallowing pills is far more common than most people assume, and larger pills are dramatically harder to get down — a common reason for why so many people fail to maintain their supplement routines
- Multiple daily schedules and travel make a pill or capsule routine fragile; it's often the first thing to fall by the wayside on a busy or disrupted day
- For suitable ingredients, reformulating capsules into a powder that can be mixed into food or beverages removes most of that friction, thereby giving you the best chance of staying consistent in the long term
