How do you find out what size a vitamin capsule is prior to purchasing a jar?!


Question:

How do you find out what size a vitamin capsule is prior to purchasing a jar?

My child can only swallow small capsules. There are vitamins I want to order, but fear that I will open the bottle to find huge capsules. How do I find out what size the capsule is before I purchase?

My child has autism and requires many supplements due to being a picky eater and having difficulty digesting dairy and wheat. We have taught him how to swallow pills because he won't tolerate the grainy texture of most chewables.


Answers:

It is better to buy them at a place that you can open the jar or bottle and see for yourself. Like at a health food store. Usually, if the owner is kind enough, they will oblige you if you ask them if they wouldn't mind if you took a look first. Sometimes, they even have some open already for you to sample. Make sure the child is getting enough good food, first, before just giving them a vitamin pill. Good luck and Godspeed.
