Guest guest Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 We divide the 25mg capsules on a plate, and put half into another empty capsule. We save them up from other supplements that we also empty out of the capsules into juice. You gather quite a collection in a short time. Or you can purchase empty one. As fillers we use magnesium, vitamin C, milk thistle, grapefruit seed extract powder..whatever extra supplements they might need. You can put it in to water or juice, but it should be done right before you give it. It is advisable to use premixed chelator in a short period of time. (if it has been put into juice) My personal experience was not to mix it ahead of time, but right before I gave it. The taste tends to get worse if it's mixed hours before rather than minutes. cold juice also tend to dull the taste. Also, when putting it in juice or liquids, make it a tiny amount of liquid, such as you can administer in a medicine syringe or cup. You don't want the child to get too full of liquid and not finish the dose. > > I will be trying to divide into even smaller doses for a child. How do > you do that?

Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Ed, I'm SO glad you posted this again! I couldn't remember exactly who it was posted this VERY helpful info. Now I can thank you again! : Donna Posted by: " Ed " ejhayes76@... ejhayes76 Tue Mar 4, 2008 3:14 pm (PST) Janet- Here's an old post from me on AMC about how I make custom doses: ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- - I use a Cap-M-Quick with size O capsules. I have found that 15ml = 25 capsules (or 30ml will do all 50 capsules, but I usually make 25 at a time). So, my method for making 25 capsules: -break open as many DMSA/DMPS/ALA capsules worth of chelator as I want in 25 capsules into a little measuring cup (e.q.I used 10 100mg caps of DMSA to make 25 40mg caps). -top off the measuring cup to 15 ml with Vit C powder. -put this mix in a little jar and shake it up until it is well mixed. -pour the mix out on the Cap-M-Quick and spread into 25 caps. -Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
