China custom empty capsules provide a cost-efficient way for anyone to make their herbal and dietary supplements.

Most capsules are made from gelatin, which remains a very popular choice. Gelatin capsules are affordable, easy to digest, hold ingredients well, and have a smooth finish that works well in capsule filling machines. Gelatin capsules are pure and natural, made of only bovine collagen and water, and are guaranteed toxin-free, certified Kosher and Halal. While clear gelatin capsules are the most common, Capsule Supplies offers a large variety of colored gelatin capsules in sizes ranging from 000 (the largest) to 5, the smallest.

Those seeking a non-animal sourced capsule may choose from our Vegetarian HPMC (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose) vegetable cellulose of either pine or poplar or our pullulan capsules, which are made from organic tapioca starch. 100% natural, these capsules contain no preservatives, no gelatin, wheat, or animal products. Vegetarian capsules generally are available only in clear, however, Capsule Supplies offers white in Sizes 0 and 00.

Also now available in Vegetarian capsules are our special Herbal Oil capsules designed to hold oil-based liquid suspensions. These are a wonderful choice for herbalists and those seeking a means to take these types of supplements that are preferred to be taken in a capsule form.

As alternative and "folkloric" medicines become more popular, many people are looking to take even further control of their health by filling empty capsules to create their supplements. By choosing to do this, you can save money, reduce excess packaging waste, plus control exactly what goes into your capsule, right down to the capsule itself.

Herbs commonly used for health supplements such as ginseng, turmeric, cinnamon, garlic, green tea, goldenseal, etc., can readily be purchased in bulk at your local natural grocery or online. When filling your capsules, we recommend starting with supplements that allow for some leeway in the dosage, as your measurements may not always be accurate. A kitchen scale is a good start, and our Capsule Size chart will give you an idea of the typical volume for each size capsule.

Making your capsules is not hard. If you are only taking a few types of supplements per day, you can likely knock out several months' worth in just one evening.

While filling by hand can be relaxing for some, if you feel you are not dexterous enough or just want to fill more capsules more quickly, a manual capsule filler.

We share your concern about knowing and controlling everything that you consume. When you choose to purchase your empty capsules from Hgcaps, we promise that you will always know exactly what is in your capsules.
