When you are faced with high cost of sea moss capsules, it is really a tough decision to purchase these capsules. After all, the capsules are quite expensive and you may not be so sure of what has gone into them.

So, how do you make your own sea moss capsules? In fact, it is nothing but a dream until recently.

In this guide, you’ll learn the easiest way to make your own sea moss capsules at home. So, you’ll be rest assured of the ingredients of your sea moss capsules, which should be 100% natural real sea moss powder and free of any artificial fillers or binders.

Hence, you can get rid of any unwanted side effects and enjoy all the benefits that Sea moss has to offer.

In this article, we will discuss how to make your own sea moss capsules that can come in handy when you need that extra dose of sea moss. Read on to learn more.

Can You take Sea Moss Capsules Everyday?

Many people are interested in taking sea moss for its health benefits, but they may not be sure how to take it. One option is to take sea moss capsules.

Sea moss capsules are easy to take and can be taken every day. Sea moss capsules provide all the same benefits as other forms of sea moss, including improve digestion, boosting immunity, and promoting healthy skin. Taking sea moss capsules is a convenient way to get all the benefits of this superfood.

While many people take sea moss capsules every day in order to get the most out of these benefits, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any supplement regimen to ensure safety and effectiveness.

Is it Better to take Sea Moss in a Capsule or a Gel?

If you’re considering taking sea moss, you may be wondering whether it’s better to take it in capsule form or gel form. Both have their benefits.

Capsules are easy to take and transport, and they don’t have a strong taste. Gels, on the other hand, provide a higher concentration of nutrients and can be mixed into smoothies or other recipes for a boost of nutrition.

In the end, the best form of sea moss for you depends on your personal preferences and needs. If you want an easy and convenient way to take sea moss, capsules may be the best option. If you’re looking for a more nutrient-rich form of sea moss, gels may be the better choice. Whichever form you choose, sea moss can provide numerous health benefits.

What You Need to Make Sea Moss Capsules

If you’re looking for a convenient way to take sea moss, capsules are a great option. All you need is some empty capsules and a little bit of time to fill them. So, what do you need to make sea moss capsules?

Encapsulating sea moss powder requires several items such as empty 00 vegan capsules, a 00 capsule machine, and a glass jar to store your capsules in. 

The addition of cotton or silicone packs inside the jar helps to keep the capsules fresh and prevent them from going bad. 

So, in essence, you will need:

  1. A 00 Capsule making machine
  2. Empty 00 vegan capsules: These can be purchased online or at a pharmacy. Make sure to get the size that you want – most gel will fit into size 00 capsules.
  3. Sealable jars with lids:
  4. Fresh dried sea moss: You can make your own sea moss gel, or purchase it online or at a health food store.
  5. Cotton balls or silicone packs: to help keep capsules fresh

Once you have all of your supplies, you can proceed to make your sea moss powder. You can do this ahead of time and store the filled capsules in a sealable jar in a cool, dry place until you’re ready to take them. When you’re ready to take sea moss, just pop one or two capsules and drink plenty of water. Easy peasy.

How to Make Sea Moss Capsules

Making sea moss capsules at home is quite simple and very affordable, provided you have a couple of tools: An electric coffee grinder (or a blender that isn’t totally worthless), sealable jars with lids, and some empty capsules.

You can also buy gelatin caps from many herb companies; they are usually sold in bulk but are a little more expensive.

If you’re looking to save some money and can stand not having the exact doses each day, use any size of gelatin or vegan capsules.

Follow the steps below to make sea moss capsules:

Step #1: Prepare your sea moss powder

The first step is to prepare the raw sea moss. You would have to make sure you are able to identify the real sea moss from the fake. This isn’t hard at all, though it takes a while.

Step #2: Prepare your capsule machine

Set your capsule machine to “00” size capsules.

Sea moss capsules are made by placing dried sea moss in a capsule with shellac. At the store, you’ll generally find two sizes of capsules: 00 size and 0 size.

The smaller 00-size tablets hold 955 mg of sea moss and costs $35 per 100; the larger 0-sized tablets hold 1,650 mg and cost $55 per 100.

Step #3: Fill Machine with powder

Follow the directions for your particular capsule machine. This may mean placing empty capsules and powder in the machine. 

Some capsule machines are automatic while others are hand-operated. 

Usually, you begin by putting capsules in the capsule filling tray and opening the capsules.
