Other Ingredients (5)

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.

Rice HullsAnti-caking

Ground outer husk of rice grains used as a plant-based flow and anti-caking agent

Capsule ShellCapsule

Generic capsule shell where the label does not specify the material. Common materials are hypromellose (HPMC) for vegetarian capsules and gelatin for traditional capsules — both are GRAS-listed and safe. Fish gelatin and pullulan variants also exist.

Gum AcaciaBinder

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

Sunflower Seed OilCarrier

Common vegetable oil from sunflower seeds used as a carrier in softgels for fat-soluble nutrients
