I was going to write that I had never heard of these kinds of gelatin capsules but I went to read the label on my bottle & it said: Gelatin capsules ( bovine, USP, Halal ). I googled it & it said that these capsules are manufactured in India & are in accordance with Islamic Law. I guess you'll have to research it further to fully come to an conclusion. I am enjoying the Black Seed very much though. I hope this response has helped you. Good heath to you.

My bottle (purchased elsewhere), instead of showing 100 capsules, shows 100 vegetarian capsules with ingredients listed as: Whole Spectrum Black Cumin powder (475 mg), Vegetarian Cellulose, Vegetable Grade Magnesium Stearate. Preservative free. I don't know if Amazon sells these; if not see Supplement Warehouse.

Yes, soft gels are not vegetarian and do contain gelatin from animal sources. However, Doctors Best does make this same product in Vegetarian capsules that do not contain animal gelatin.

The product label, which can be viewed at the URL link given, states that gelatin is used. The amount is not stated, but I would guess that it is much less than what is in the two gelatin capsules that I routinely take daily.

No pork is listed on the ingredients. The gel capsule is made from beef gelatin. The fish oil is from anchovies and sardines.

Yes, the capsule is gelatin. When I purchased them, it said they were vegan so I didn't bother to check. After 3 bottles, I noticed the gelatin and was furious since I'm vegan. My bad for trusting! I contacted the company and they were very apologetic, sent me a 32 oz bottle of MCT oil, and promised to look into getting v-caps.

When I spoke with a CS rep from Sibu beauty they verified that it's suitable for vegetarian. I'm going to safely assume that they don't use any animal by-products in their gel caps. Or I hope so!

I suspect you mean gelatin which is a collagen product derived from animal byproducts.

Yes Mohamed, there is Gelatin in this product. It is listed as the third ingredients so I would feel it is definitely safe to say it is a pork based product.

Hello Ross, We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. As the product information does not indicate that the gelatin used is vegetarian, we cannot guarantee that it is. I have forwarded this concern to the appropriate department for their further resolution. Thank you for bringing this to our attention! Best in health, Jessi V.

No:( apparently there's a vegan capsule and I specified that I wanted that one and still got the gelatin.

Hi, I don't know. I have not yet run across gelatin from grass fed cattle. Thanks for bringing up the question.

Hi Ahmad, though I'm not affiliated with the company and can't give you a 100% answer, I do believe you are correct in that most gelatin is derived from pork as well as bovine. Almost half of all gelatin comes from pork by products, however. So, chances are pretty high that is the case with these capsules, as well.

The gelatin that is used to manufacture capsules and softgels (and Jell-O brand gelatin) is derived from beef cattle. Gelatin is an animal-source protein but it is not a complete protein. It is missing several essential amino acids, including methionine and lysine. "Vegetarian" capsules are made of water-soluble cellulose, which is a dietary fiber that is derived from plants.

Hello, I am sorry I took so long to get back to you! In answer to your question, I was told the gelatin is made from animal derived product. Although it does not come from cattle, Nature Made products come primarily from pork sources. I hope that has been of some help! Linda

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.

Are you wondering about the gelatin that the capsule is made of? Gelatin is derived from animals usually cows or pigs . In the information leaflet of Colpermin capsules it does not specify if the gelatin used in the manufacturing of the shell of Colpermin capsules is from a cow or a pig. I hope this answers your question.

Usually, this refers to the ingredients used to make the capsule's "shells" (outside coverings). If they are not marked "vegetarian," it's usually because the outside shell of the capsule is made with gelatin. Gelatin IS an animal product. Hope this helps; these are FANTASTIC B complex caps!
