The Making of a Capsule.....Buying ready made capsules of herbs can get costly. The cheapest way to take herbs is to buy the herbs in bulk and then make your own capsules.
You can purchase bulk herbs inexpensively from the bulk herb store at www.bulkherbstore.com

If you purchase the herb in powder form you don't need to do anything but make the capsules with it.
If you buy the herbs in any other form you will need to turn it into a powder. This is easily done with one of those inexpensive small coffee/herb/nut grinders from any store like Walmart or Target. They run about $10.00

You will need to purchase the following:
A capsule maker, you can get this from any health food store. They are very inexpensive and run about $10.00-$15.00 dollars. You will also need the capsules but you can buy approx. 1000 capsules for under $10.00 usually. The capsule maker is a one time purchase and the herbs and capsules will last you a very long time. These items will pay for themselves in no time. After you make a few batches of your own capsules you will have saved enough money to pay for the items you had to purchase.
Be sure to store your herb powder in a freezer safe jar. Keep the jar in the freezer to keep the powder from losing it's beneficial properties. 1) Here are the steps to make the capsules. Get your capsule maker out.
2) Be sure the tray is down, follow the instructions that come with the maker if you are unsure what to do.
3) Get your capsules and take the ends off. Store them in a cup or bowl for when you will need to put the caps back on the other half of the capsule.4) Put the large empty part of the capsules into the holes on the capsule maker. Be sure the open part is facing up.
5) Pour your herb powder in a pile over the capsules. Spread out the herbs back and forth until all the empty capsules are filled with the powder.
6)When they are full scrape up the extra powder and put it back into the jar.7) Drop the tray down so the capsules are now standing higher than the tray.
8) Recap the capsules. After all the caps are on be sure to push down on them until you hear them snap closed.
9) Remove the capsules and store them in a bottle.
10)Dump any extra herb powder back into the jar.
11) That is all there is to it. You now have home made capsules! Doing this should save a ton of money!
I hope this helps you on your journey to good health! Blessings and Hugs!
Dearest Lord, Thank you for so many ways to be frugal and good stewards of all you have given us! Especially our finances! In Jesus name I pray, Amen!
