Other Ingredients (4)

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.

Magnesium StearateLubricant

A salt of stearic acid used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule production

Silicon DioxideAnti-caking

Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping

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.
