Question

Which is best? a capsule or boiled herbs?

Answer 1

boiled herbs anyday.

Answer 2

minx is right that taking the herb in it's pure form is the ideal, but between those two choices, a capsule would be your best bet if it's from a good quality company.

Most herbs (including fruits and vegetables) will lose a lot of their nutritional content if you cook them with high heat or boil them. That's why fresh vegetables are recommended over cooked ones.

Capsules (from good quality companies) will typically have freeze-dried herbs, which helps them to retain most if not all of their nutritional value.

If you can get the herbs fresh, go for that and don't cook them (unless they require cooking, like how Soy requires fermenting to be safer when eaten whole)... but if not, go for capsules from a good quality company.

Answer 3

The organic natural form of the herb will always be the most nutritious and easiest for your body to assimilate and get the utmost goodness it possibly can from ........ no pill, capsule or liquid could ever replace nature's bounty .......;0)
