Plant-Based HPMC “Acid-Resistant / Delayed-Release (DR)” Capsules
At Ryztor Premium Dietary Supplements we upgraded capsule quality in 2024, adopting plant-based HPMC delayed-release (DR) shells supplied by Floral Ervas (Brazil). This technology allows the capsule to open in the intestine—not in the stomach—enhancing comfort and protecting sensitive ingredients.
Designed to open at intestinal pH.
Gelatin-free; suitable for veggie lines.
Improves survival to the absorption site.

FAQ
Why do some capsules say “Floral Ervas”?
It identifies the OEM capsule shell manufacturer. Ryztor formulates, fills, and ensures the dosage and quality of the active ingredients. Capsule branding does not change potency or formula.
Is HPMC suitable for plant-based preferences?
Yes. HPMC is a plant-derived polymer and is commonly used for vegetarian/vegan capsule shells.
What does “Delayed-Release (DR)” actually mean?
The shell is engineered to resist gastric conditions and open later, at intestinal pH, which can enhance comfort and help protect sensitive actives.
Do all Ryztor products use DR shells?
We prioritize DR shells where they add tangible value (e.g., Berberine). Other products may use standard shells depending on formulation needs and lot planning.
