Default Making suppplement capsules?

I'm trying to figure out how to make capsules with more than one powdered ingredient in them -

I've seen the videos where you learn to make one ingredient capsules with the capsule "machines" - and that's fine, but what if I want to mix in very specific proportions?

DO I have to fill each capsule individually? WIth a teeny tiny funnel??

Mix up a larger patch. One that is easy to get the different ratios that you want, and then use that mixture to fill the capsules.

Yep, problem with that is that each powder is a different texture if you know what I mean, one is fluffy and the others are heavier granules, so I don't think there would be even distribution...

Mixing may not be perfect. But it will probably be better then you expect.
Consider a bag of premixed concrete, granted it is perhaps not something you would want to ingest, however it consists of some big stones, some fine sand and the powdered cement all mixed together. Unless you try to separate it will generally stay mixed.

you will get a sense of how it goes from my article here. You can purchase capsule stuffing machines if you look on the net. Mine does about 60 at a time. If I recall right they cost about $20

You could always capsule up the different powders separately and take the pills together

Great, thanks - have ordered the little "machine", empty capsules and the powders - will try mixing it up and see how it goes - I will report back!

Heavy TZM, that is what I'm doing now... I'm hoping 1 capsule will be easier!
