Since it is in powder form inside the capsule why not open the capsule over some water (2cups) and let the powder fall inside, mix it up with a spoon, immediately drink half off it, next day right before you drink it mix it up again and drink the rest of the half. You might not get exactly 50 mgs a day but I don't see why that should matter or be a problem. At times you might get 30 mgs a day and the next get 70 mgs but if that is the only negative about doing it this way I don't see why that is a big deal sense in general you will still be getting the same amount. Perhaps there is something about it that I am just not getting. Thank you for helping.
