It gives me a good feeling making pills and capsules for future use by my family. It's kind of the same way I feel about filling up the pantry with things from the garden. The title "homemade" has a good connotation for me. If it does for you, too, try doing this.

We sell all the supplies you need to do any of these things.

Fill your own capsules so you can:

  • Custom mix ingredients
  • use quality and fresh raw ingredients
  • save up to 75%
  • avoid use of binders or excipients

Capsules bought in the store are so expensive and often times very poor quality. When you buy herbs by the capsule you are usually paying around $60 a pound and for herbs that may be only worth $3-$5 a pound. They are rarely labeled as wild crafted or organic! Yet it's so simple to fill capsules!

Capsule Filling Machine and Tamper for size '00' capsules
Herbs must be finely powdered to encapsulate them. Two "00" capsules are considered the adult standard dose. It takes approximately one ounce of herb to make 30 capsules. Each "00" capsule contains about 1/2 teaspoon of herb.

The advantage of capsules is that they are easy, quick, and tasteless. Also, people are familiar with allopathic medicine where this is the standard format for treatment. Powdering a root or herb greatly shortens its shelf life, however, once in a capsule the herb will hold it's medicinal properties for some time. The disadvantages of capsules found when the digestive system is compromised. In this case the herb will not be fully digested and utilized. Digestive systems are often not functioning properly when a person is sick. This is where tincture and teas have an advantage over capsule.

Directions for Using the Cap-M-Quik - Cap-M-Quik for size '00' capsules
With the Cap-M-Quik you open up 50 capsules, placing them in wells. Then you raise the platform and pour powdered herb out onto it. Using any small card, you scoop the herb over all the holes and tap the device a few times to settle the herbs down in their respective capsules. Then you lower the platform and recap capsule bottoms now full of herb. My children down to my 5 years old can do this with only a little supervision. It's that easy.

Make sure your hands are dry when working with capsules. Any moisture will cause them to stick together. Store capsules in Ziplock bags or glass jars away from moisture, light and heat. Moisture will ruin the capsules and light and heat will breakdown the medicinal properties of the herbs. You can make single herb capsules or combine herbs to make combinations like a cold or flu formula, or one for the heart and high blood pressure, or memory, or the eyes, or blood purification, the possibilities are limitless.
