the colours of capsules...

actually,i am always attracted to the colour of capsules....so today,im going to write about capsules...
in medication, capsule is refer as a small soluble container, usually made of gelatin, that encloses a dose of an oral medicine or a vitamin...there are two types of capsules which are the hard-shelled capsules(normally used for dry, powdered ingredients) and the soft-shelled capsules( used for oils and for active ingredients that are dissolved or suspended in oil)...both types of capsules are made from gelatine and from plant-based gelling substances and modified forms of starch and cellulose.
here are some colourful pictures of capsules from flickr...











moral of this post is "dont do drugs"hihi...
