CarmineColorant
Insect-derived (not vegan/vegetarian) and a recognized cause of IgE-mediated allergic reactions, including documented anaphylaxis. The FDA mandated explicit 'carmine'/'cochineal extract' labeling in 2011 specifically because of these reactions. Not toxic to the general population, but a genuine allergen with no health benefit; plant pigments achieve the same color.
Medium Chain Triglyceride OilCarrier
Fractionated oils rich in C8/C10 triglycerides used as neutral carrier or anti-sticking agent
GelatinCapsule
Protein derived from collagen, used in traditional capsule shells
GlycerinHumectant
Sweet-tasting liquid used in soft capsules and liquids
Sunflower LecithinEmulsifier
Non-GMO, non-allergenic emulsifier derived from sunflower seeds
Vegetable OilCarrier
Edible oils used as carriers in softgels and as processing aids
How to Take It
Best taken in the evening
Magnesium citrate pulls water into the bowel — mildly laxative at higher doses. Evening suits that; split the dose or switch to glycinate if it's too much.
With or without food
Space it a couple of hours from Iron and Calcium
On the label
Take two softgels daily, with a meal. For easier swallowing, take with water before and during ingestion.
General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.
