This used to have soy lecithin in it & has been replaced with lechithin from non GMO sunflower seeds. Is this product the updated one without soy??

My suggestion would be to contact Jay Robb, directly, when I've had questions about his other products, they were very helpful and honest with their answers, I actually telephoned them, I like the 'personal' contact better than email, you can get a sense of possible truth vs whatever they may think you want to hear.

I just bought this in late November 2013. The current product only has non-GMO sunflower lecithin. The unflavored product only contains egg whites and the sunflower lecithin, that is it.

, peanuts, and eggs, and may contain traces of all of the above." The the ingredient list is: egg albumin, xylitol, natural flavor, xanthum gum, lecithin (from non-GMO sunflower seeds), and stevia. Hope this helps. The vanilla is really the most delicious protein and the Jay Robb is the only one I will buy.

When I purchased it , it had the soy based lecithin I haven't purchased it recently though so it may be the new mix now

The bag I bought most recently still listed soy lecithin. That was spring 2013.

Yes, I just checked the ingredients, and verified that lecithin (From non-GMO sunflower seeds) is listed.

Ashley, good question, and that was one of my concerns also. The Lecithin is from the soybeans about 100 mg. They have to advise the consumer that it does contain soy of any type. However, Lecithin helps with memory and it is also found in egg yokes too. However, after reading about DIM and obtaining knowledge of the benefits of it, with my decision to purchase it, I read about the benefits of taking it, and it proved true to the benefits of it after a doctors visit. I am age 50 and it benefited me tremendously. I will purchase this product again. Go online and search out the benefits of DIM. This will help you make the right decision for you. Thank you Ashley for asking the question.

Just confirming the other answers here, but the bottle I ordered from Amazon shows 100% Soy Lecithin as the only ingredient.

Yes, it's non soy and non GMO. Plus it's derived from sunflower so your body absorbs it better. I was told by my holistic dr that any time you take supplements that are synthetic that you body will not recognize it or treat it as foreign.

Where did you read that this had no soy in it? It actually says that it has Soy Lecithin which is just a derivative of soy and not actually soy. It does however have soy so if your allergic to it then I would not take this product. I have to say after using this product for a month, I felt a lot better and was a lot more regular. I also had more energy and overall better wellness.

Yes there are non-soy liquid lecithins sunflower is one. The granules form I am not positive but do a search here on Amazon. Just put in granule lecithin and see if one comes up. If not try not soy lecithins. Also google these searches or other search engines to help you run down the product you are looking for.

I do not have a bottle on hand, but researched on the Life Extension (LEF) site, which is the manufacturer. The chief culprits for genetic modification are soy and corn. Out of deference to customers who may be allergic to soy, LEF did not include any soy-isoflavones in this product (even though the clinical research leading to this supplement included them.) And, on top of this, they are very mindful of "customer concerns" about avoiding GMO to the maximum possible. Thus I would assume there are no GM ingredients in this supplement.

Great question and thank you for calling this to our attention. It is soy lecithin. The shipped product is correctly labeled with soy lecithin in both places.

My container (purchased from Whole Foods, not Amazon) says Sunflower Lecithin.

Hi Jerome,I am looking at the bottle and soy lecithin is listed as one of the "other ingredients".

I read the label and it has soy lecithin in it. At the bottom it says contains soy. Hope that helps you.

Hi Brittany,On Tera's Whey website's FAQ (http://www.teraswhey.com/faqs.html) they say they reformulated their product to have sunflower lecithin instead of soy lecithin. So if you get one with soy lecithin in it, it's probably old.That being said, they do process their products in a facility that may handle soy-based ingredients, which they disclose on their label. Hope it helps!~Heather

Sorry. The company I was buying this product from quit selling it so I don't know if it had soy in it or not. Good chance it does though, the product I replaced it with lists soy.

Ingredient label specifically states free of soybeans along with other products. It lists sunflower lecithin. Under warning for allergens It states it is mfg in facility that mfgs soybeans

Hexane processing is mainly for soybeans, is a approved by the FDA, I know, it is better not to have all the chemicals and be all natural, I do not know if this product made from sunflowers have it, contacting the company is a way to go if you really want to know more, distributed by www.swansonvitamins.com 1800 4374148, I trust Swanson, I consider them a good company. Of course it would be healthier if it was mechanically processed and no preservatives, lamentably to make it stable and not spoil quickly. The ingredient in the label says: Non GMO Sunflower Lecithin. It has a silica gel disseccant bag inside to keep it fresh and dry, which a lot of powder products and vitamins have. I was using soy lecithin, to see if it could help my back pain, and neuralgia, because lecithin is around the neuron's axons in the myelin that protecs the nervs. Yes it helps , I feel relief . Then change to Sunflower lecithin to try and see if it was the same and because I wanted to give it to my boys for their acne and maybe soy is not that good for them , it is helping, we are taking other vitamins too, B5, rice fiber, in smoothies with fruit or juice. Lecithin does not have any bad flavor, pretty bland if taking alone.

No "organic" labeling. The whey is from cows not treated with rBGH. Lecithin is from non-GMO sunflower seeds. Sweetened with Stevia. Usually I Dont like Stevia, but can't taste its unique flavor in this protein powder. NO...MSG, Acesulfame-K, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, cholesterol, artificial colors, aspartame, sucralose, lactose, or sugar.The only downside I can see, is if you have allergies, it is produced in a factory that processes all the major allergens.I absolutely love this product.
