Unfortunately, gelatin is listed twice in the ingredient list, and only the second is listed as vegetable gelatin. It doesn't mention whether this product is kosher or not.

They are lanolin capsules which comes from sheep. The gelatin from the capsules are from a beef source according to another review. No pork products are used. I only know if it's kosher if it says so. Unfortunately I do not see Kosher being listed. I do swear by the higher dose of this product. I still have not had any colds or illness since I've been taking this.

According to the website, the gelatin is from the bones of bovine not from the hooves or skin. You might want to go to their website and research for yourself.

We are happy to help! As stated on the NOW Foods website, "The gelatin used in our gelatin capsules is obtained through the processing of collagen derived from the skin, white connective tissues and bones of beef and pork". We hope this information is helpful!

It isn't written on the bottle. However, it does say that it is not for vegetarians. I would ask a pharmacist but I doubt it is from pork. Gelatine is usually produced from either beef, fish or vegetable. Hope this helps.Patricia

Yes it is Kosher. The chickens that supply the eggs are not raised for food and the product is from Switzerland

I didn't mean to just answer yes. I was on my phone when I clicked that. Gelatin is derived from the collagen of animals. That could be cow or pig. Or other animals. Unless it details where they got the gelatin from no one can correctly answer yes or no because we do not know the source of their gelatin.

According to the manufacturer, the product is halal and kosher (some are marked with a hechsher...some are not). I have purchased these rations many times over the years and the company used to enclose a notice that the product's kashrut standard could be obtained by writing to them (they must use various certifying authorities). That said and you should, of course consult with your own LOR (local orthodox rabbi)...but halachah permits suspension of the laws of kashrut in life-threatening situations...which are the very conditions these rations are intended for use in. Kol tuv, Wendy, for considering whether this product meets religious dietary standards.

Nope. All Carlson's softgels are made from beef gelatin. Now, I do not believe they are Kosher or Halal, so you'd have to double check with Carlson's.

I believe that gelatin is not kosher. You could always open the capsules and add the powder to applesauce or juice or milk, though.

I have no idea if it's kosher- is there a toll free number on the bottle? Google it

The only questionable part of the product is its "Other ingredients"; which are listed as: "Rice Flour, Cellulose (capsule), Gelatin, Ascorbyl Palmitate and Silica; of which the only ingredient in question is the "Gelatin"; respectively, because the source of the Gelatin in not listed and the bottle does not say it is "Kosher", one must assume that it is not Kosher. Accordingly, you might want to look at A-D-K 60 caps by Davinci Labs, which provides more vitamin K2-MK7 that any other product we are aware of and only contains: Vitamin A (as Retinyl Palmitate) 5,000 IU, Vitamin D3 (as Cholecalciferol) 5,000 IU, Vitamin K2 (as MK-7) 500 mcg with other Ingredients of: microcrystalline cellulose, vegetable cellulose (capsule), vegetarian leucine. Non of which seem to have any questionable contents for those that are wanting to live in accord with Mosaic Law.

Gelatin is animal based. A friend of mine is a vegetarian and won't eat anything with gelatin in it. I believe it is from animal hooves.

Pretty sure it isn't vegan. Vegan products cannot include any animal product. As for kosher, I don't know. That would depend on the processing, I believe.
