Pills are much too large
I've had a few things from Just Vitamins in the past, so I thought I'd try their Multivitamins A-Zinc 50+ , Glucosamine with Chondroitin (500mg/400m and Turmeric with BioPerine® (Black Pepper Extract). Unfortunately the multivits and glucosamine tablets are both over 2cm long, and quite fat, and impossible for me to swallow. Even breaking them in half doesn't work because of the shape. The Turmeric is 2cm long as well. I'm in my 70's and, along with many other older people, find it more difficult to swallow than when I was younger. It is quite normal for swallowing to become more difficult as one ages, and it is something which could perhaps be addressed in future by making the pills smaller so that one can take two instead of one. Unfortunately I've spent £70 on pills I can't use.
However, I very much appreciate the response from Just Vitamins, and I am following up with them. A trustworthy company.
