Other Ingredients (5)
CarrageenanThickener
Can break down into poligeenan (a known inflammatory) under stomach acid conditions. Tobacman (2001, Environmental Health Perspectives) reviewed evidence linking carrageenan to intestinal inflammation and ulceration. Major food brands (Silk, Stonyfield) have voluntarily removed it. Used only as a thickener — provides no health benefit.
SorbitolSweetener
A FODMAP sugar alcohol that may trigger GI discomfort (bloating, gas) in individuals with IBS or sorbitol malabsorption, even at small amounts found in supplements. Avoided in low-FODMAP diets.
StarchBinder
Carbohydrate polymer used as a binder, filler, and disintegrant in tablets and capsules
Purified WaterSolvent
Water meeting USP specifications used as solvent/vehicle in gummies and liquids
GlycerinHumectant
Sweet-tasting liquid used in soft capsules and liquids
