many said it is hard to swallow, can you crush and put them in capsules?

If you are not good at swallowing pills, it can be difficult to swallow I imagine. It would be hard to crush them but I don't see anything wrong with doing that and putting em in a capsule, but that's my opinion.

if you can crush them, why not. However you can always buy your aminos in powder...

Hello, my wife has the same problem - she claims not to be able to swallow big capsules, tablets, but with the Digest Spectrum she is OK, especially it really works with Digesting. These caps are slightly smaller than the big ones, like 1000mg vitamin C for example. Just a note: if you think - one doesn't have a problem to swallow food - it is times larger than any pill, so it is all in one's mind, not some restrictions, try to do it with a bite of an apple, or a piece of bread.Hope this helped.Good luck, Mark.

Do not swallow capsules, swallow what inside of them. I do and it works. Thank you.

The capsule is about the size of a regular vitamin. I don't find it hard to swallow.

I'm not an expert on the subject, but I would guess so. I would think the capsule just makes it easier to swallow.

If your talking about Areds 2, I'ed say no. It's not hard to swallow. It's shaped like a football. If you have trouble swallowing pills, I would recommend when your chewing a bit of food, just before you swallow put the pill in your mouth & swallow with the food as you take a drink of water. Your throat opens wider to accomodate the food and keep drinking the water.

I put mine in pill capsules but you can probably just swallow it with water or mix into a drink

Yes, I find it very easy to swallow. I don't like "tablet" form as they are harder to swallow. This is a much easier form....slides right down my throat.

They are very hard. I have never tried. It might be easier to partially let them dissolve. But if you had a pill cutter it would probably work

Always drink plenty of liquid (water is probably best) when taking a capsule. I've had no trouble swallowing these capsules.

They are a large capsules. I don't have any problems with them. However, if you have trouble swallowing, that may be a problem.

Hi - they are capsule sized and not "chokey" like big pills - they are fine to swallow in my opinion because they are slippery. Hope this helps! Rebecca

No Not to large and not hard to swallow, although it depends on the individual, one of my workmates cannot swallow a pill or capsul no matter the size, if you have had difficulty with others likely you will with these.

It's a little larger than a typical capsule. I take a lot of pills, gel caps and caps and this is large but not the largest. I have no trouble swallowing these caps.

I disagree that it's a large capsule and I have a lot of trouble swallowing. However, any powdered magnesium in a capsule can be sprinkled on applesauce or mixed into yogurt, etc. I often choke on capsules and twist them open. The capsule is just a transporter. You can use magnesium in many forms and I've even soaked my feet in it (in a cheaper form)

Actually, they are capsules, a bit on the larger size, but unlike a pill they are pretty easy to swallow and they are very light in weight, which also helps for easy swallowing. I have no trouble with pills, but I think you will be okay with these.

In my opinion, I don't believe it has the same effect. The capsule is not very big easy to swallow.
