"It's an anti-inflammatory agent made from the silk worm" is an answer by one of the reviewers. Why on the container say VEGGIE CAPS?

The active ingredient is delivered in your system via a pill that you swallow... so the pill has to be made of something. The Veggie cap is usually more popular than the Gelatin cap because most are made out of soybean... and many people think that's better for them than a gel. The active ingredient is indeed what you stated but that's how it's delivered... just like vitamins, drugs or anything else in pill form.

Wow! I have searched and searched for this for you on the internet and I can not find a thing on it. I do know they use vege cap in alot more things now due to allergies. My recomendation for you would be to go to chacha.com and ask your question. They have guides that find answers to questions people can not find or they do not know.. i am sorry I hope this some what helped you.

When I spoke with a CS rep from Sibu beauty they verified that it's suitable for vegetarian. I'm going to safely assume that they don't use any animal by-products in their gel caps. Or I hope so!

"Veggie capsules" refers to the capsules themselves which are made from soybean and other plant sources. Regular capsules often contain gelatin, which is made from the boiled skins, bones, ligaments and tendons of cows and pigs.But you're right, the ingredients inside the capsules contain glucosamine from shellfish and chondroitin from a bovine source.Hope that helps :-)Kristina BrooksThe VitaBreeze Team

I have no idea. I have only seen capsules sold as either gelatin (of animal origin) or vegan (of plant origin). These are standard gelatin capsules and therefore, I am assuming, of animal origin.

The capsule itself is vegetarian. But the contents certainly are not.. I'm vegan.. Other than these.. But they keep gallbladder attacks away.

My bottle doesn't have anything about bovine source...it actually reads "vegetable cellulose" veggie cap. You could go to their web site and check but mine doesn't have anything about shellfish or bovine source.

Its from non bse cattle http://www.drbvitamins.com/information/faqs/category/1Our capsules are typical gelatin capsules, with the exception of select products now available in veggie cap form. (See veggie cap listing.) They are made of gelatin from cattle, like the "Knox gelatin" sold in grocery stores.The gelatin used to make the Doctor's Best capsules is manufactured in accordance with strict guidelines that ensure it is BSE-free. The FDA and the supplement industry approved these guidelines. Our gelatin is made only from cattle living in non-BSE countries.

Dear Gamaliel, According to the website of the manufacturer, the only information related to the capsule is "Vegan Capsule (plant cellulose)". If you are looking for specific information, probably calling the manufacturer "Deva Nutrition" is a better option. Sincerely, The Vitamin Corner

My bottle indeed says vegetable capsules. As I mentioned previously, this is one product that has helped to keep me "regular" on an ongoing basis. Highly recommend.

I believe so! It says that it's veg caps on the bottle and the ingredients read vegetable sources.

It is a capsule with powder inside. The "V" means the capsule is made from vegetarian ingredients, the others not stated to be vegetarian are usually made with beef extractions which vegetarians don't want in their diet.

Not sure what a veggie cap is. It is a pill that is a supplement containing vitamins and minerals that are good for eye care.
