What Are Empty Vegetable Capsules?
Empty vegetable capsules are a natural, animal-free way to package your own powdered supplements. Made from plant cellulose, they contain no preservatives, binders, or artificial additives. Each size #1 capsule holds approximately 400 mg (or about 1/9 teaspoon) of typical powdered material, giving you precise control over your dosage. They're perfect for encapsulating herbs, vitamins, or any other powder you want to take in a convenient, easy to swallow form.
This bulk pack provides a generous 1000-capsule supply, reducing packaging waste and saving you money compared to smaller quantities. The clear, uncoloured capsules are made from pure vegetable cellulose, so you know exactly what you're getting—nothing else.
Choosing the Right Capsule Size
Capsule sizes are numbered from #00 (largest) to #5 (smallest). The #1 size is a versatile middle-ground, holding about 0.5 ml or 400 mg of most powders, depending on density. For smaller doses, consider size #2 or #3; for larger amounts, size #0 or #00 may be better. If you're using a manual capsule-filling machine, check that it's compatible with size #1—most models have interchangeable pins for different sizes. This size is a popular choice for home encapsulators because it's easy to fill and swallow.
When deciding, think about the typical dose of your powder and whether you'll be combining multiple ingredients. A #1 capsule offers a good balance for general-purpose use.
