Other Ingredients (8)
FructoseSweetener
Added free fructose is metabolized in the liver and at habitual intake is linked to elevated triglycerides, hepatic fat accumulation, and insulin resistance; an avoidable sugar load with no supplement 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.
XylitolSweetener
A FODMAP sugar alcohol that can cause GI distress (bloating, gas, diarrhea) at moderate doses (>10-20g/day), though supplement amounts are typically small. Extremely toxic to dogs — households with pets should store securely.
Magnesium StearateLubricant
A salt of stearic acid used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule production
Natural FlavorsFlavor
Broad regulatory category of flavor constituents derived from natural sources. Composition is proprietary and not disclosed — 'Natural Flavors' can include several hundred different compounds depending on the target flavor profile, including hexane-extracted constituents and proprietary carrier solvents. 'Natural' is a regulatory definition (21 CFR §101.22), not a safety guarantee.
Silicon DioxideAnti-caking
Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping
Microcrystalline CelluloseBinder
Plant-derived cellulose used as a binder and filler in supplements
Stearic AcidLubricant
Saturated fatty acid used as tablet lubricant
How to Take It
Best taken in the morning
Best absorbed on an empty stomach with vitamin C. If it upsets your gut, take it with a light meal instead.
On an empty stomach
Keep it away from coffee, tea and dairy
Space it a couple of hours from Calcium, Zinc, Magnesium, Manganese and Green Tea Leaf Extract
On the label
Adults and children 4 years or older; chew one tablet daily at mealtime.
Labels usually say “with food” because it's gentler on the stomach, not because it absorbs better. Fasted absorbs more — start there, and switch to a light meal if it bothers you.
General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
