This says it's derived from a corn source. Is this organic? After seeing the documentary, King Corn, I don't trust anything coming from a corn source.

I have been using this product for a few months. It is very good in my baking. However, You are right to be concerned about it being made from corn. I have read on the product website that it is not GMO. With that said, I have also heard from an expert that no corn should be trusted. Therefore, I will NOT reorder this product. We work too hard to be GMO free to take a chance on this product. My honest opinion.

FYI, just got my first bag today and enjoying a cup of coffee. The bag says "100% Pure, Non-GMO" and a video at NutritionFacts.org indicates that this is the "winner" as a "harmless" sweetener. http://nutritionfacts.org/video/a-harmless-artificial-sweetener/

It says in the product description that it has natural maltodextrin (from corn). I think that means there is corn in some form in there.

it does not say on the bottle...so I would imagine that it is GMO as it's hard to find corn product that is not...I never paid attention to this nor have I contacted the company...you might want to start there!

according to the advertising it is made from non-gmo corn, however I don't see a USDA Organic certified stamp. Please contact manufacturer for further information.

It is organic, so it is non-gmo, but it may be hybrid. I don't think it's the ancient grain.

Great question....... Typically we try to go the "Organic" route on most of our foods as well.......but if you did your homework you will see the the gov't owns the rights to the term "organic" as far as store bought foods is concerned, so how honest are they really being is the question? Now, why I continue to buy this product is that fact that they are oats off of a non-GMO (genetically modified organisms) farm, which to me, goes farther than putting an "organic" label on something. Not sure I fully answered your question, but I am up to this point still a strong advocate of Bob's Red Mill Rolled Oats. Especially good with Raw unpasteurized honey and raw/organic cinnamon!

I wondered this same question, so I emailed the company. It took them a really long time to respond, and by that time I had moved on to a different brand that did clearly state it was non-GMO on the bottle. But here is the response they gave me: MK7 is derived from non-GMO soy. It is not a certified organic product. Additionally, the soybean oil and primrose oil are non-GMO MK7 comes from natto, which is fermented by the bacteria bacillus subtilus. Best Regards, Sarah Jarrow Formulas,Inc. info@jarrow.com

I don't believe they are allowed to label it as organic if it is made from GMO corn, but you would have to ask the seller to be sure.

I don't see any organic USDA label on this product. So to me it looks like it very well may be gmo since most corn is derived from gmos and ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn.

I believe I called the producers of the product and they said that was an error. They said they were going to fix it, but obviously have not. They claim it is 100% organic.

Label states 100% naturally derived. 72% organic. I took a picture of the label but I can't post it from my phone. Hope this helps!

I believe it is a 'balanced' grain nutritionally and is raised where the Natural soil was rich in nutrients not found other places. Now it could be raised other places soooo watch your source. High protien if I remember correctly.

I called Nature's Way, who is the company that provides this multivitamin, and I was told that the source of Vitamin E that is in Nature's Way Alive Multivitamin is derived from soy, so my next question was to ask her if the soy it was derived from was a GMO (Genetically Modified Organism), because most soy in the USA, unless it is organic and NON GMO Verified, is Genetically Modified. She told me that they try to the best of their ability, to make sure that none of their supplements contain GMO's, but that she cannot guarantee it. I hope this answers your question. By the way, in case you did not know, GMO's are EXTREMELY BAD! Avoid them at all costs!!!!

Interesting Wayne..it is non-gmo corn. Do you know of a Acerola berry powder that is a better choice?
