Benefits of using empty capsules

Using empty capsules gives you complete control over what you consume. You can combine different ingredients, adjust dosages to your needs, and avoid unnecessary additives present in many commercial supplements. Additionally, capsules are easy to swallow and protect the contents from moisture and air, maintaining their freshness. They are a practical solution for those following specific diets or who prefer powdered formats but want the convenience of a capsule.

Features of Solaray capsules

Solaray size 00 empty capsules are made of high-quality gelatin. They are transparent, allowing you to see the contents. They come in a resealable bag to keep them protected. Each capsule has an approximate capacity of 0.91 ml, enough to hold a significant amount of powder. They are suitable for use with most manual encapsulators available on the market. Solaray performs rigorous testing to ensure that each batch meets its standards of purity and consistency.

How to fill empty capsules?

Filling the capsules is simple. You will need a manual encapsulator (not included) or you can do it by hand. Separate the longer part (body) from the shorter part (cap). Fill the body with the desired powder using a small spoon or a tamper. Then, place the cap and press gently until it clicks. For best results, use an encapsulator that allows you to fill several capsules at once. Store the filled capsules in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
