How to Choose the Right Capsule Size
Selecting the appropriate capsule size is crucial for accurate dosage and ease of uses. Size 3 capsules are amongst the smaller options, holding up to 330mg of powder, depending on density. They are often recommended for children, pets, or low-dose ingredients. When choosing a size, consider the density of your powder – denser materials will weigh more per volume. Always refer to a capsule size chart to compare dimensions. For larger doses, sizes 0 or 00 may be more suitable.
