What is this thing?
My desk is cluttered and I just found this thing on it. I'm worried it's some egg from a insect. It's extremely hard tho I try as hard as I can, but I can't squish it with my fingers. It's mostly see through which doesn't seem bug like. Looks more like a pill or a maybe a stone from some jewelry. But don't take any pills like this or have any jewelry with that color stone that anyone in the house wears really

Looks like a vitamin D pill, but those are squishy.
Yea, I've never seen a gelcap that small, but it looks exactly like a gelcap.
So I'm with you, it's a gelcap
And like, idk, aren’t those pills maybe 5 times larger than this thing?
Or maybe OP followed one of these enlarge you penny tutorial you find on the internet...
Settle down Mr. Moranis.
Depends on the dosage, I've seen little ones like that.
No shit? That sounds wild. What’s the application?
Boosting vitamin d increases immune defense. Good for warding off cold and flu in climates that don't get enough sunlight.
OTOH, in me, it also increased kidney stone production. :( So while I dodged the cold, flu and covid, I also had 6 kidney stones.
I was actually asking about the teeny tiny gelcaps you referred? I have never seen any even close to that size! Usually they are somewhat larger. I just found this page with some cool info, https://www.trustar-pharma.com/info/softgel-sizes-the-ultimate-guide-37148451.html
Sorry to hear about your kidney stones! That does not sound super fun!
