Vegan caps Vs Gelatin Caps.

I have a question for those who fill their own capsules.. I've been using vegan caps...the first one I tried was V-caps from Solaray and I felt the cap shells were kind of sturdy, but the second time I bought NOW foods V-caps from iherbs.....I feel they are a little too delicate and is harder to fill. I'm finding this to be a chore.
Are gel caps OK? I have never tried them and I know they are less expensive than the Vcaps. Would that be easier to fill than V-caps?
Thanks,
Healingjourney

I've only used the V-Caps because I think they're better for us so I don't know if the gel caps would be easier to fill or not.
I think the gelatin caps are made from toxic things that we wouldn't want to put in our bodies, especially while we're cleansing but I can't tell you what they might be lol.

Here is a bit of information on gelatin and veggie caps:
Because capsules are made from gelatin, an ingredient derived from slaughtered animals (mainly cows and pigs), they are therefore unsuitable to certain groups, such as vegetarians, vegans.
Veggie Caps -- composed on inert vegetable cellulose and do not interfere with the digestion and absorption of the ingredients contained within
I hope this helps answer your questions.
