were you can make your own cap with all the things you need and nothing you dont in it.
The innovative Custom Capsule concept was created by a small group of health-conscious supplement users who wanted freedom from the one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. They wanted the unique ability to create their own products, and they wanted to extend that ability to health-conscious consumers everywhere.
In a manner unlike any used by today’s nutritional supplement manufacturers, the Custom Capsule concept empowers consumers to choose the ingredients they want, in the amounts they want, through an online virtual compounding pharmacy. Supplements are made to order with the highest quality ingredients available in Custom Capsule’s state-of-the-art lab and shipped promptly to the customer’s address.
For two years, the Custom Capsule team worked to perfect the revolutionary process of online custom supplement design. Through research and development, the team established a stringent set of guidelines that resulted in 1) a manufacturing process for providing affordable, small quantities of capsules, 2) the delivery of consistency and quality for each batch, and 3) a fail-safe safety protocol to guarantee that every order contained the exact formula the customer selected.
Once the Custom Capsule lab was operational, the Web site service was designed with specialized software to provide the customer with the means to correctly measure the amount of ingredients that can fit into a capsule, to provide important information such as the number of pills per serving, and to protect the customer from dangerous ingredient amounts and combinations. This simple, user-friendly experience is further enhanced by informative ingredient descriptions and warnings.
In addition to the power to create one’s own capsule, customers may choose from a wide selection of pre-made products formulated with Custom Capsule’s dedication to affordable, high-quality products. Non-encapsulated supplements, such as bulk powders, are also available.
Custom Capsule will continually work to better serve the nutritional supplement needs of health-conscious consumers. New products and features will be offered regularly, and feedback is always welcome Contact.
