HPMC (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose)

HPMC, or Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, is a plant-derived compound widely used in the supplement and pharmaceutical industries. It serves as a vegetarian-friendly alternative to gelatin and is commonly used to form capsules and tablet coatings.

In addition to being non-toxic and hypoallergenic, HPMC provides controlled release of active ingredients, enhancing the stability and effectiveness of supplements. It is also resistant to moisture and stomach acid, helping protect sensitive ingredients until they reach the intestines for better absorption.
