XPRS Nutra Empty Capsules Size 4 - 1000 Count

What are Size 4 Empty Capsules?

Discover Xprs Nutra Size — Size 4 empty capsules are bovine gelatin containers designed for you to fill with your own powdered supplements. With an approximate capacity of 120 to 240 mg (depending on powder density), they are ideal for those who want to customize their daily doses. This small size is perfect for potent ingredients requiring reduced doses. Being transparent, they allow the content to be seen and facilitate precise filling.

These empty capsules contain no additives or preservatives and are made from pure bovine gelatin, ensuring their dissolution in the gastrointestinal tract for proper absorption of the ingredients you add. They are a practical and versatile option for fitness enthusiasts, herbalists, or anyone looking to create their own supplements.

Benefits of Using Empty Capsules for Your Supplements

Filling your own capsules gives you complete control over what you consume. You can adjust exact doses, combine different ingredients, and avoid unnecessary excipients present in many commercial supplements. Additionally, empty capsules are easy to transport and take, making it easier to maintain a daily routine.

Another benefit is long-term cost savings. Buying ingredients in bulk and encapsulating them yourself is usually more cost-effective than purchasing pre-packaged supplements. Size 4 capsules are especially useful for high-potency powders, such as plant extracts or amino acids, where a small but precise dose is needed.

They are made with high-quality bovine gelatin, without preservatives or additives. They dissolve easily in the stomach, ensuring that nutrients are available for absorption. In addition, they come in packs of 1000 units, with options of 100, 500, and 5000 units to suit your needs.

The manufacturing process takes place in Utah, USA, complying with strict quality standards. This guarantees a consistent and reliable product for daily use.

How to Fill Capsules Correctly?

Filling size 4 capsules is simple. You can do it manually or with a filling machine. For manual filling, separate the two halves of the capsule, fill the longer part with powder using a small spatula or syringe, and then press the cap until it clicks into place. Be careful not to overfill the capsules so they close correctly.

If you use a filling machine, place the empty capsules in the tray, add the powder, and press. The design of these capsules facilitates the process thanks to their smooth, rounded edges. After filling, store them in an airtight container, away from light and humidity, to preserve the freshness of your supplements.

Tips for Choosing the Right Capsule Size

Size 4 is one of the smallest available, ideal for low doses of active ingredients. Before purchasing, check the density of your powder and the desired dose. For example, if your powder has a density of 0.5 g/ml, a size 4 capsule can hold about 120 mg. If you need larger doses, consider larger sizes like 00 or 0.

For very fine powders or essential oils, gelatin capsules are an excellent option because they dissolve quickly. Remember that bovine gelatin is suitable for most people, but if you follow a vegetarian or vegan diet, you should opt for vegetable capsules (hypromellose).
