Should the capsules be filled with a stark white powder? I have read some reviews stating that these should be brown.

this none is a white powder however there is a Dopa Mucuna with st johns Wart that one is a brown powder. However i would warn you if you have any history of depression, alcoholism or PTSD you should not take St. Johns Wart unless under doctors supervision there are too many adverse side effects with St johns wart including night terrors and Suicidal and Homicidal thoughts.

Mucuna Pruriens which this is derived from is a very white, almost chalky powder. Sounds like the real deal.

Mine are white as well. I am getting a positive result from this supplement. Though I do no recommend it, I am taking three a day. BodyBuilding.com gave them an award for best supplement company, so I trust they are the real deal.

Not sure but I haven' t had any effect from this product at all, maybe different for others though.

The response I got from NOW Foods on this issue: No Worry. This is a concentrated extract. Some of the new material is very light. A natural variance and within our specification reflective of a higher concentration in the original material. We've tested and confirmed the lighter color product for identity, purity, and potency.

Mine were not brown. They looked like off white powder . Still did wonders for me.

They are a cream color. Not white and not brown. I would describe it like a pill of sand. I open the capsules and dump it into my smoothies with the other nootropics i use. I hopw this helps..Diana

The pills in the brown bottle have a coating that makes them easier to swallow. The ones in the white bottle don't and they begin to dissolve immediately in your mouth. I have a white bottle expiring 9/16 and a brown bottle expiring 3/17 in front of me right now and I can feel the difference in the texture of the pills in my fingers.

With all supplements, capsules are usually the same powder packed into gelatin shells. They bio-availability is basically identical, but you are paying a premium for convienience and gelatin. As a warning, this product does not mix easily, so order your magic potion shaken not stirred.

Hi Cody, I can't speak to the purity question. As for the color, I can say that the pills are brownish.

I don't understand what you mean - what "others" are half red and half white? The pills are tan because there is no artificial coloring.

I've bought multiple bottles of this serum over the past year or so, and it's all been brown. And it's a wonderful product which has worked wonders for my skin! So, pretty sure it's supposed to be that color.

The color of my serum when it arrived was clear not brown. I have had it for several months and keep it in the fridge and it is still the original color. I would try to return the product or contact the manufacturer to complain. It should not be brown.

I'm sorry - there is absolutely no notation anywhere on the box that states whether they are bleached or unbleached but since they are white and nothing is noted, I'd assume they are bleached - not brown.

Nothing showed up, I don't know what pills you mean. If it's cholestoff, yes they are white

I know use 50% lactic acid which is brownish in colour. If I remember correctly,the 50% glycolic acid was not completely clear as it had a bit of colouring to it. You might try contacting Perfect Image at 800-863-9615 just to verify what I said is correct.

my packs were the same size and marked the same as what I got from my vet. Powder is brown but there are white specks in it. But definitely brown.

Never really paid attention to the lighter color until you pointed it out but, yes, they are definitely more tan, not brown like previous bottles. Wonder if manufacturer made a change? There is a toll free # on bottle. Might be worth calling them. We typically crush our tabs anyways with a meat tenderizer to put on our dogs' food. Mix it in with another joint support powder & fish oil. That's how they like it!

Hmm. Odd yellow color yes, but not sure about the stench. I don't remember anything too bad. Do they have their clear plastic capsules?

These B vitamins do have an odor - it's normal. I just hold my nose and pop a capsule with no problems. A bright orange-yellow color is also normal. If the capsules develop dark brown spots, a mottled appearance, the capsules are still safe to take but their strength may be degraded. Always check the use-by date on the bottom of the bottle, and keep them in a cool, dry place. (Note: your bathroom cabinet is NOT a dry place.)

I too noticed the change of capsule color. I am sure it is legit. I just wish the manufacturers would put themselves in the consumers mind set and understand it could be cause for concern. Some acknowledgement on the box would be nice.

I thought I did my research well but something I overlooked was the color of the capsules. If you ever watched any review videos or just happen to know what color they are you'll notice they're green and yellow. The ones i received where not, they where tan capsules. I honestly don't think it is the true alpha brain. If you truly are curious I would suggest buying if directly from the site. Hope this helps.
