Capsules (Powdered Herb)Moderate · 30-60 minutes per batch
Equipment
Herb grinder or pre-powdered herb, Empty vegetarian capsules (size 00 or 0), Capsule filling machine (optional but recommended), Small bowl, Scale (optional for precision)
Instructions
1If using whole dried herb, grind to a fine powder using a dedicated herb grinder.
2Pour the powdered herb into a small bowl or capsule filling tray.
3Separate the capsule halves. Fill the larger half with powder, tapping to pack gently.
4Press the smaller half onto the larger half to seal.
5A size 00 capsule holds approximately 500-700mg of powdered herb.
6Standard dosing varies by herb — typically 1-3 capsules, 2-3 times daily with food.
Tips
• A capsule filling machine makes the process much faster and more consistent.
• Pre-powdered herbs from reputable suppliers save significant effort.
• Store finished capsules in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
Capsules bypass taste, which can be important — bitter taste stimulates digestion. For digestive herbs, teas or tinctures may be more effective. Always follow recommended dosing.
Store in airtight containers away from moisture. Use within 6-12 months for best potency.

Herbal PowderEasy · 5 minutes
Equipment
Measuring spoon, Blender or cup for mixing
Instructions
1Measure the recommended amount of herbal powder (typically 1/4 to 1 teaspoon).
2Mix into warm water, juice, smoothie, or warm milk (for golden milk-style preparations).
3Stir or blend thoroughly — some powders don't dissolve and need blending.
4For Ayurvedic herbs (Ashwagandha, Turmeric), mixing with warm milk and a fat (ghee, coconut oil) improves absorption.
5Drink immediately or add to food (oatmeal, yogurt, soups).

• Honey can mask bitter flavors — add after the liquid has cooled below 104°F (40°C) to preserve honey's properties.
Start with smaller amounts and increase gradually. Powdered herbs are concentrated — measure carefully.
Store in airtight containers away from light and moisture. Use within 6-12 months.
• Use a non-aluminum pot — aluminum can react with plant compounds.
• Decoctions are necessary for roots, bark, seeds, and mushrooms — these are too tough for simple steeping.
• You can simmer mushrooms (Reishi, Chaga) for 2+ hours for stronger extraction.
Some roots are very potent — follow specific dosing guidelines for individual herbs. Avoid decocting herbs with volatile oils (peppermint, chamomile) as you will lose the beneficial compounds.
Refrigerate and use within 48-72 hours. Can be gently reheated.
