So I was reading the SN survivors stories and one of them bought empty capsules and filled them with SN and now I'm wondering why more people do not use SN like that? Isn't it better not to taste that "salt" in your mouth? Like it's briliant idea to use gelatine capsules and now I'm just wondering why it's not that popular?

Because capsules can lead to slow and uneven absorption, which could cause unpleasant side effects to last much longer before enough capsules dissolve to knock you out. If you vomit when only a couple of your ~30 capsules are dissolved, you will likely lose your entire dose. That would mean failure.

That is why most people use the salty drink. Tasting something terrible one time is a lot better than increasing your risk of failure.

It was really popular for a while but honestly the only benefit is not being able to taste it. The capsules you have to use are pretty large and they tend to dissolve unevenly so you can't really guarantee that you're absorbing all the SN you need at the same rate. a lot of people who were using the capsule method ended up surviving it.
All in all it's not worth the effort, and it's not really that hard to just chug it.

It would probably fine to use, but you'll still be sick. another member mentioned 'bombing' rizla papers with SN in aswell!!!

I mean if your worried about being sick, i doubt there is a way of stopping that. its part and parcel of this method. people aren't sick due to the taste of this stuff, its more to do with when it hits the stomach. like for instance if you drink sea water it will make you sick as it contains salts
