If you have ever taken medication or an herbal supplements, you are likely familiar with gel caps. In fact, many people who must take medications on a regular basis prefer gel caps, as they tend to be easier to swallow. In addition, the capsules can easily be separated in half and the contents can be sprinkled on food or mixed in with a drink for those people who have a true aversion to swallowing any pills or caplets, regardless of size.

It is nearly impossible to mash a pill into small enough pieces that the person taking it does not notice the gritty taste. Most people can swallow gel caps with ease though, even when they are on the larger side. The nature of the capsule makes them easier to swallow when wet than pills that are not as smooth.

If you like the thought of creating your own supplements, you're going to need empty capsules to start. While it's not always difficult to find some sizes of capsules in a local health food store you can't always be assured of good quality and, just as importantly, the age of the capsules. Most capsules have a shelf life of about two years. Many herbal shops can't sell capsules that quickly, and they can become old and brittle on the shelf. To sell smaller quantities, they'll have to charge you more. That's the tradeoff. Gelatin and vegetarian capsules are made by many manufacturers worldwide. Some are reputable, but many more are not.

Capsule machines come in various sizes, generally beginning with size 1 which is the smallest, sizes 0 and 00, which are subsequently larger, and the 000 capsule, which many call "horse pills." Obviously, size 000 is the biggest. The 000 is in fact the largest available to the general public and it can be hard to find. They are normally priced at about twice the price of the next sized capsule, the 00, and are not available in a non-gelatin form such as you would find in a vegetarian capsule. The pluses and minuses to different sized capsules are obvious--more product but harder for many to swallow in the larger size, or easy to swallow but more capsules with the... Read More
