Powder supplements offer several benefits over capsules or tablets for those seeking to enhance their nutritional intake or support specific health goals such as hormone balance.  

Here are four benefits of powder supplements:  

1. Enhanced absorption. A powder has the benefit of being digested and absorbed more easily and quickly that a tablet or capsule.  

2. Fewer excipients. There are often fewer excipients (these are added ingredients such as fillers, preservatives and colouring agents used to assist in the formulation). Generally, the less excipients the better. All ashaya’s oral powder supplements are free from preservatives, artificial colours and flavours. 

3. Higher dose therapeutic ingredients. More therapeutic ingredients can be included in a powder form compared to a tablet or capsule. One dose of a powder supplement may equate to several daily tablets or capsules. Both In-Flow Period & PMS Relief and Re-Glow Perimenopause Relief Oral Powders are full of evidence-based therapeutic herbal ingredients, traditionally used across Ayurvedic, Chinese and Western medicines. 

4. Easier to consume. Many people find taking capsules or tablets difficult to swallow. Supplement Powders are much easier to take and can be blended with your favourite juice or smoothie.  

Generally speaking, a powder supplement has many benefits compared to a tablet or capsule. Your health practitioner may also have a specific reason why a tablet is better suited to your needs, so always be guided by their recommendation.
