What are hemp capsules?

Hemp capsules are capsule products that hold hemp extract inside a capsule shell made of gelatine or cellulose. Inside, the extract sits in a carrier oil such as MCT oil or hemp seed oil; outside, the shell closes each capsule. The carrier oil determines the consistency of the contents, the shell determines the format.

Don't confuse them with capsules that hold nothing but hemp seed oil. In hemp capsules, hemp seed oil is at most the carrier, and the real contents are the extract – hence the name hemp extract capsules. It is drawn from the flowers and leaves of the hemp plant, for example by CO2 extraction from hemp, before it goes into the shell with its carrier oil. Hemp capsules are neither a food supplement nor a medicine, and they are non-intoxicating; we answer the legal question below.

Softgels, hard-shell capsules and tablets

Hemp capsules come in three formats, and what separates them is how the hemp extract is packed: sealed in as a liquid, filled into two halves, or pressed. Ordered from soft to firm, it is a question of shell and handling, not a ranking.

FormatShellContents
Softgel (gel capsule)one piece, soft and glossyliquid hemp extract in a carrier oil
Hard-shell capsuletwo matt halves, often cellulose and so veganthe extract as a filling
Tabletno shellthe extract, pressed rather than filled

Hemp softgels and hemp gel capsules are the same soft format, vegan capsules use cellulose instead of gelatine, and in everyday speech any of the three is often simply called a pill. The product page states which format a pack holds – at uWeed, hemp capsules are currently in the range as firm, pressed tablets.

How to choose the right hemp capsules?

There is no single best hemp capsule: the right one follows from five details every product page states, not from a promise on the pack. We compare hemp capsules on these:

  • Extract type: full spectrum, broad spectrum or isolate tells you how much of the plant's profile stays in the hemp extract.
  • Shell and formulation: gelatine or cellulose, plus vegan, gluten-free, GMO-free, additive-free or organic – each only where the product declares it.
  • Carrier oil: MCT oil, hemp seed oil, olive oil or black cumin oil shape the consistency and the taste of the contents.
  • Lab report: where the product page carries the maker's lab report, it shows the composition and a THC value under 1%.
  • Pack size: divide the pack price by the number of capsules and compare the price per capsule rather than the price per pack.

Add the reviews from other buyers on the product page, and you can compare Swiss-made hemp capsules product by product – starting with the extract type below.

Full-spectrum, broad-spectrum and isolate extracts

The three extract types sit on one axis: how much of the hemp plant's own profile stays in the extract. From full spectrum through broad spectrum to isolate, it keeps less and less of it – a property on the label, not a ranking of quality.

Extract typeWhat stays in the extractWhat the label says
Full spectrumthe plant's range of compounds, terpenes included, with the plant's aroma and a darker colourfull spectrum, under 1% THC
Broad spectrumthe same range, with the THC removed in a further stepbroad spectrum
Isolateone compound separated out, everything else removed – neutral in taste and colourisolate or isolate-based

Hemp capsules with full-spectrum extract keep the most of the plant's character, while an isolate-based formulation such as Suitia 10 stays neutral; the product page states which one a pack holds.

Frequently asked questions about hemp capsules

Four questions that come up before you buy: the legal position, the difference from CBD oil and from hemp seed oil capsules, and storage.

Are hemp capsules legal in Switzerland?

Yes, hemp capsules are legal in Switzerland as long as their total THC is under 1% – at that level they are not a narcotic under the Swiss Narcotics Act. They are neither a food supplement nor a medicine, and they are non-intoxicating. Where the product page carries the maker's lab report, it shows the THC value. Everything else that applies to hemp products is set out in our guide Is CBD legal in Switzerland?

What is the difference between hemp capsules and CBD oil?

Hemp capsules seal the hemp extract into a shell or press it into a tablet, counted by the piece, while CBD oil comes as a liquid in a dropper bottle with a pipette. Both start from hemp extract; the difference lies in form and declaration, and in the product class too, because CBD oils are sold in Switzerland as cosmetics or aroma oils. If you are after the liquid format, you will find CBD oil and CBD drops in our oil category.

Are hemp capsules the same as hemp seed oil capsules?

No, hemp seed oil capsules hold oil pressed from the seeds of the hemp plant, while hemp capsules hold an extract drawn from the flowers and leaves. Both are searched for as hemp oil capsules, which is why the ingredients list is the place to check. In hemp capsules, hemp seed oil appears at most as the carrier oil. Hemp seed oil capsules are sold as food supplements; the hemp capsules on this page are not a food supplement.

How should you store hemp capsules?

You store hemp capsules cool, dry and away from light, in their original packaging. The shell is the sensitive part: gelatine and cellulose react to heat and moisture, so capsules turn soft or stick together, and pressed tablets draw in moisture too. A cupboard away from the cooker and the window suits them better than the bathroom. How long they keep is set by the best-before date the maker prints on the pack. Keep them out of the reach of children.
