        Dry herbs can be put into capsules. Size 00 holds ¼ tsp using a “Capsule Machine”, therefore you’d need 4 or 8 capsules of herbs per dose depending on if it’s a single herb or a formula. That’s a LOT of capsules at once.

        Why do herb formulas sold in capsules on HGH say to take only 4 capsules when it’s a formula? Are they larger than 00? Are manufactured capsules filled with herbs able to hold more than ¼ tsp in a size 00?

          I dose formulas the same way I dose singles. A rounded teaspoon or two will be about right for either.

          When herbs are in a formula, there is a cooperative/synergistic effect that makes you need less volume for results.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
