Other Ingredients (6)

Rice FlourFiller

Rice-based ingredients carry risk of inorganic arsenic contamination (FDA and Consumer Reports). Rice accumulates arsenic from soil at higher rates than other grains. Used as a cheap filler — adds nothing beneficial.

MaltodextrinBinder

Spikes blood sugar faster than table sugar (glycemic index 85–105). Research links it to gut bacteria changes that may promote intestinal inflammation (Nickerson et al. 2015). Used as a cheap filler — adds nothing beneficial.

Silicon DioxideAnti-caking

Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping

Gum AcaciaBinder

Natural plant gum (acacia) used as a binder, stabilizer, and emulsifier in foods and supplements

HypromelloseCapsule

Plant-derived capsule material from cellulose

Mixed TocopherolsAntioxidant

Natural vitamin E used as preservative

How to Take It

Best taken in the morning

The Vitamin B12 in it is what pulls this toward the morning. Take it with a meal containing fat — the vitamin A in it absorbs poorly without one.

With a meal containing fat
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, as a dietary supplement, take one (1) capsule daily.

General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
