Herb Capsules
Herb capsules are a good solution for many herbal remedies. Easy to make and take, herb capsules are virtually tasteless. They are not as quickly absorbed by the bloodstream as herbs taken in a tea or tincture, but they are handy, particularly for those on the go. By making your own capsules, you can create your own blend, perfectly suited to your needs.
Capsules come in different sizes, with "00" the standard adult size. One adult cap holds about one-half teaspoon of powdered herb, and two "00" caps are commonly considered a standard dose for an adult. You can use either nongelatin, vegetarian caps, which are made from plant cellulose, or the more common gelatin caps.
You can encapsulate herbs by hand, in a small bowl, or with the help of an encapsulating machine. Make sure your hands are dry as you work, and consider combinations of powdered herbs for maximum effect.
Be sure you consult a health care professional if you are receiving any medical treatments or may have a serious health condition.
