How to Uses the Empty Capsules
Using XPRS Nutra empty capsules is straightforward. Begin by gathering your powdered supplement and a capsule filling tool—or fill manually. If using a machine, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to align the capsules and distribute the powder evenly. For hand filling, separate the capsule halves, scoop the powder into the larger half, then press the smaller half on until it clicks. The size 0 capsules are a popular choice because they hold a substantial amount of powder (400–800 mg) without being too large to swallow. After filling, store the capsules in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Always wash your hands and work area before handling capsules to avoid contamination. If you’re new to capsule filling, start with a small batch to get a feel for the process—you’ll soon develop a consistent technique.
