the pills do what they're supposed to, but they're huge, you have to take three of them per dose. I don't know if it's the veg Caps or if it's something else, but they also have a smell and a taste that I can't get used to. I have to take them one at a time because they're too large to swallow all at once, and another brand that I found effective, which I can't remember quite off the top of my head, only required one per dose, even if it was a large tablet.
for reference, I am 6 ft tall male and the joints on my fingers are approximately 1 in apart.
