Can the capsules be taken directly?

I'm taking them and they have no noticable effect on me at all. I didn't try any skin application,- if your "directly" means "orally". - Probably if you try skin application, - it probably could have some healing effect though I doubt it unless if you put it on your skin with something that really works. Though they should be effective,- but no effect on me means that powder inside of these capsules is too much processed,- that's my opinion. I don't think that there's any difference if you take them on empty stomach or after food because I tried both ways and just even without placebo effect. though if you really believe then they could be effective. God bless You. I'm taking them and they have no noticable effect on me at all.

I don't have problems taking capsules, so I'm not sure what your limitations are. They are not too big of round, they're skinny. They go down pretty easily. I take two at a time and have no problems.

I don't know about opening them and putting in water but I can take the capsule without water

I never tried that, but it seems possible. However, why pay more to get it prepared in capsule form if you are going to take it apart anyway?

I haven't tried that. I typically fill them with dry herbs and they store seemingly indefinitely. My guess is that the oil may dissolve the capsules within a few days, but try keeping them in the refrigerator if you try it. Otherwise, these are really good quality capsules [few broken ones and close tightly]. Good luck.

I've never done that but I don't see any reason why not. They're very small pills so they're easy to swallow. I hate swallowing pills, but if they're gel caps and small that's good!

Yes you can as long as they are the same shape and size. What is interesting is the time of operation. I have found that the time of operation is at least twice as long compared to Nespresso capsules.

Hi Carleton. Thanks for your question. The capsules are not that big and they are easy enough to swallow. The capsules are about the same size as a Tylenol pill. Any further questions please don't hesitate to ask. Riley - Sano Customer Services

I have never pulled apart a capsule but it looks like this is possible - they are the usual clear capsules in two parts, one side fitting into the other. You can also buy the curcumin in bulk directly from the manufacturer (Amazon doesn't appear to carry this ) http://www.nutrivene.com/view_item.php?id=344

Not particularly... but they're not difficult to get down, either.This is a pill size chart. These aren't capsules, but I'd say somewhere inbetween size 0 & 1 on here.http://www.capsuleconnection.com/files/images/capsule-sizes.gifBe sure to take this with food, as they can definitely make you nauseous on an empty stomach.Hope that helps.

Nope. These are in capsule form and can be stored on your bathroom/kitchen shelf with the rest of your supplements.

I just swalled them whole, since they are capsules I dont think you can cut them in half or anything. They DID NOT work for me, after 3 months I stopped ordering them.

Yes, you can do it whatever ways you liked. There is diluted Oregano oil available in the market too, but I like this one because it is pure and I used as to put some drops inside the empty shell of capsule and drink with water, you get therapeutic effect when needed.

I have the machine as well as these capsules, but the machine is not absolutely necessary. For example, we used these for my son's cough medicine that tasted horrid. I filled each one by hand using a small pipette since it was a liquid medicine. However, if you are going to be filling a bunch of capsules with something powdery, then using the machine is definitely easier/quicker.

You'd have to take quite a few to equal a tablespoon, and they'd be more expensive. This literally disappears in liquid, so there's no point to the capsules anyway.

NOT in a small jar unfortunately. What we do is take them out of the package they are in and put them into small bottle. They do come out of the package fairly easy, but if you have a hard time with any type of package then you might like our idea. We've used a small knife on other packages just to get the pill out and put in our own small bottle.
