yet some people say there is no intelligent design! Everything is working within a system for a purpose and is calculated and counted so precisely. If I say this is just a coincidence then I will not try to get into it and discover which will prevent me from learning it and progress. Thank you for this good vid

How about gel capsules?

[@cmdrbozo]

Lubricants like stearic acid are NOT added so tablets won't stick to the digestive system. Their function is to prevent the tablet sticking to the die in the tablet press!

@epiccgamer put peanut butter, yogurt, or honey instead

[@attrennux0000]

@epiccgamer tilt your head forward a little when swallowing a pill or capsule.

Not very useful when there are tons of facts mentioned, with surface deep explanation about them
