Why Choose Bovine Gelatine?
Bovine gelatine is a time-tested material for capsule production, derived from cattle hides and bones, offering a natural source free from artificial additives or preservatives. Gelatine capsules are generally easier to swallow than tablets and have a smooth, slippery texture. Unlike some plant-based alternatives, bovine gelatine provides excellent stability and a longer shelf life when stored properly.
Additionally, gelatine breaks down at body temperature, ensuring your supplement ingredients are released efficiently. XPRS Nutra sources its gelatine from high-quality manufacturers, so you can trust the consistency and purity of each capsule.

Whether you're a DIY health enthusiast or a small-scale supplement maker, these size 2 capsules offer a reliable solution for creating personalized pill doses. Made from pure bovine gelatine, XPRS Nutra capsules are designed to dissolve easily in the digestive tract, allowing for optimal absorption of your chosen ingredients.

How to Fill Your Own Capsules
Filling your own capsules is straightforward and gives you complete control over dosages. Start with a clean, dry surface and the powder of your choice. If using a hand-filling method, simply separate the capsule halves, fill the larger body with powder using a small scoop or the capsule itself as a scoop, then press the cap on until it clicks. For larger batches, a capsule filling machine can speed up the process significantly.
Remember to store your filled capsules in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For best results, uses a fine powder—clumps can be broken up with a mortar and pestle or by sifting. XPRS Nutra capsules are designed to handle standard consistency powders without tearing or cracking.
