XPRS NutraSize 0 Empty Capsules - 1000 Count Clear Enteric Coated Empty Gelatin Capsules - Delayed Release Pills - DIY Capsule Filling - Pure Bovine Empty Enteric Gel Caps

These empty capsules are easy to fill. Haven't noticed anything negative.

This is a very large bag of capsules, ready to be filled with whatever herb or medication you might have. Note that these are enteric coated and will therefore resist stomach acid and make their way to the small intestines. If your filling requites activation by stomach acid then these are not for you.Note that size 0 is a fairly large capsule, yet similar to those used in some herbal preparations. See comparison of size 0 with size 1 capsule in photos.I purchased these capsules to make it easier to take herbal medicines, especially things such as turmeric with black pepper which has too strong a taste to use without a capsule. The enteric coating ensures that the contents will not be affected by stomach acid.I have to admit that purchasing 1000 units seemed like a good idea at the time; but if you are going to load these by hand for personal use, I'm not sure that they can all be used before the expiration date which is a little more than a year and a half from the manufacture date. I had not anticipated that capsules would have an expiration date; but it makes sense since they are made from bovine gelatin.Size 0 capsules are a bit larger than size 1 but are still easy to swallow and still large enough to load by hand. An automated capsule loading machine would be convenient but not is not needed for small quantities in my opinion.Photo shows the larger size 0 compared to a slightly smaller size 1.

I recently purchased the Enteric Coated Empty Gelatin Capsules and overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase. The capsules appear to be of good quality – the gelatin is smooth, and they snap together securely without any issues. They are easy to fill and handle, which is a big plus for my needs.While I can't personally attest to the effectiveness of the enteric coating just yet, everything else about these capsules meets my expectations. They arrived in excellent condition, with no broken capsules in the package, and they seem to be durable and reliable.Based on my experience so far, I would probably buy these capsules again. They have been a great addition to my supplement routine, and I look forward to continuing to use them.

I recently got these capsules so that I could make my own supplements. I am very pleased with the quality. They go together easily after you put whatever you are using inside. I like that they are easy to fill and once snapped together they wont easily come apart. They are enteric capsules which means that they don't start digesting until they have reached the colon. Make sure that whatever you are putting into these is ok to have in the intestines. I say that because supplements or any medicine for that matter has a stronger effect when they are not digested until the intestines. Just check with a doctor or physician to make sure you are making a smart choice before you just start taking them. I definitely recommend these to anyone who needs to turn any herbs into a supplement. You will love them!

Enteric capsules have an acid-resistant coating that is intended to resist stomach acid and keep the capsules from dissolving until they reach the small intestine. This protects the contents of the capsules from being exposed to and being degraded in the harsh environment of the stomach, which can sometimes help bioavailability and reduce ingredient costs by allowing you to fill each capsule with less of the supplement or herb you’re encapsulating.Those benefits very much depend on the supplement or herb you’re encapsulating. In a few cases, the supplement you’re taking may actually need to be activated by stomach acid, and you can expect the effects of supplements in enteric capsules to be delayed by perhaps up to an hour simply because of the additional time it takes for the capsules to dissolve. But enteric capsules can be quite beneficial if they apply to your specific situation.I’ve ordered non-enteric gelatin capsules from XPRS Nutra several times in the past, and I’ve been satisfied with the quality and ease of filling. I can confirm that these enteric capsules are more of the same in those respects as expected. Given that you usually pay a markup of around 100% for the enteric coating, but the markup for these is closer to 50%, these offer a better value in both relative and absolute terms than many competitors. Highly recommended.Note: These capsules are also offered in a smaller quantity (and I’ve submitted an almost identical review for those). They’re exactly the same capsules at slightly less value for money, so I’d consider this product variant the better purchase.

This pack of 1000 gel capsules have an expiration date of 12/31/26. I got them for my son so it's easier for him to take his creatine while he is working out. Purchasing creatine supplements are very expensive so it's cost-effective to make them yourself. He shouldn't have any problem finishing these before they expire.
