Questions in regards to macro production of a compound dietary supplement. Help greatly appreciated!

Hello everyone! This is my first post on Reddit, I decided to post this here as I've been reading the community posts, and it seems like the best place to ask my questions. Briefly, my name is T-Dub, I'm an analytical chemist, and I've been involved with health and supplementation for about 8 years now. I have developed a compound dietary supplement that is intended to support cognitive function, as well as compliment, or form a basis for many popular nootropic substances. In regards to this, I've been having difficulty understanding how to produce this compound on a macro scale. My work right now is still in the R&D stages, so I would like to produce this compound with something practical, such as the Capsule Machine. I've read the post here, and on powdercity in regards to capping a compound, but I am having trouble working it out with say, 5+ ingredients. Could someone mind explaining how this is achieved, or is it even practical with the capsule machine? I understand the importance of densities, and of a filler, but the procedure still seems a bit confusing to me. Is it necessary to find the total powder mass of each ingredient of all 24 caps, or can you base it off of one cap…

You developed a dietary supplement that reliably enhances cognitive function, but you cannot figure out how to volumetrically mix the powders, and encapsulate them? T-Dub, come on!
