Is this a gelatin capsule? If so, is it vegetarian gelatin or animal gelatin mainly from pork?

In essence. both June and James don't know if the gelatin is animal based. We still need an intelligent answer.

it is vegan and most likely the cholesterol comes from the gelatin capsules, but I cannot tell you for sure.

My bottle does not list gelatin as an ingredient. The capsules appear to be made from vegetable cellulose.

It does not indicated what kind of gelatins. I'm assuming is coming from pork or some animal but I don't like guessing. I will contact them.

The bottle says they are "vegetarian/vegan". The ingredients listed are activated charcoal, vegetable cellulose, rice flour, and calcium silicate. Gelatin is not listed as an ingredient. The picture on the bottle looks like a "tablet", but the actual product is a capsule.

I don't know about the vegetarian part, the they seem to be gelatin capsules. They have reduced both the frequency and the intensity of my headaches.

The bottle does not say it has gelatin in it as I would not have purchase it if it had. I was looking for a veggie capsule because I try to keep kosher. Others might be vegetarians. Gelatin often comes from a pig rather than a cow. I had looked all over in all the drug stores I had access to before I found this one on-line. To be exact, the bottle says (mine does) it contains: "Vitamin D 3 50,000 units, Other Ingredients: Microcrystalline cellulose, vegetable capsule. (Kosher and Halal certified). Contains no Dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, nuts, wheat, gluten, soy, sugar, yeast or artificial colors.' You have to be looking at something else; or, they've changed the product since I bought mine, but the bottle looks the same. The best you should do is contact the manufacturer. But, again, there is no word at all about "Gelatin" on my bottle. I just looked at the enlarged type on the bottle above and am concerned you've written an untruth about this product I looked all over for. There isn't a word about its having "Gelatin" in it and you should apologize. What I quoted is exactly what appears on the bottle pictured above. I wrote that before I checked to see what the bottle above says wondering how I could have missed that after searching for a couple of years for a kosher version.

Hi there! Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, this product is not certified vegan or vegetarian. The ingredients in this product are as follows:Iron (naturally occurring), L-Tryptophan. Other ingredients: gelatin (capsule), dibasic calcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate.It is possible that the gelatin used to make the capsule is derived from animal sources. For more information, our best suggestion would be to contact Source Naturals directly. We hope this helps! ~Juliana

I do not know the answer to this question. But I am assuming it is regular gelatin. I will say this much for the product though. I tried Heather's product, and I know that this one is much more powerful and works better. Gelatin or no gelatin, it is worth the try.

There are non-animal capsules, but these are typically marked "vegetarian capsule" or "Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose" or maybe the inconsistent "vegetarian gelatin". Anything like this that just says "gelatin" is almost certainly animal-based.

No, the gelatin is only from cows. The product description has been updated.

Yes Jon, it is a plant product. the label states that the other ingredients are non GMO rice bran and Rosemary extract. The capsule is gelatin, not sure from what source? Might want to contact the company... Pure Body Nutra. It doesn't say on the label that it is 'vegetarian.'

It doesn't say. It just says gelatin on the bottle. If you would like I can give you their customer service number if you want to call them.

No, it does not contain gelatin, it contains vegetable cellulose (Veggie caps)

Yes, the capsules are made of gelatin. Gelatin is derived from animals. Vegetarian capsules are made of cellulose.

The bottle simply says "Gelatin." I'm sure this refers to a common gelatin capsule. If you are concerned about beef and/or pork sourced gelatin you will need to contact the manufacturer.

Anytime any ingredient says Gelatin...it is always animal based. Look on Vitacost.com for Vegan vitamin E...I will be doing the same.
