Why Choose Size 5 Capsules?
Size 5 capsules are the tiniest standard size, perfect for exact, low-dose mixtures. Each capsule holds roughly 0.13 mL or around 130 mg of powder, depending on density, which is ideal for potent ingredients or if you prefer a smaller pill. Their petite size also makes them simpler to swallow—a big advantage for humans and pets alike. Lots of Aussies use size 5 capsules to give powdered supplements to their animals, but be sure to check with your vet first.
Benefits of Clear Capsules
Transparent capsules are fantastic for showing off the colour and texture of your fillings. They bring out the vibrant greens of your herbs or the clarity of your blend while hiding any unpleasant flavours or smells. That’s why they’re a top pick for supplements where appearance counts, or for trying out colourful mixtures.
