Could you tell me if the gelatin that you use on the capsule itself is vegan?

I'm sorry but I don't know. It just says gelatin. I wouldn't know how to tell if it's vegan or not. Sorry.

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

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

It doesn't say much about it being halal, vegan or if friendly to any other food-related diets.. so unless you call the company and ask them, it's hard to tell. Even on their website they don't say what type of gelatin it is.

Hi. This has gelatin capsules instead of vegetable capsules. Gelatin is a popular alternative to veg caps both in the pharmaceutical and herbal supplements markets. The latter is a nice alternative for strict vegetarians.

Yes, they do contain gelatin so they are not vegan or even suitable for vegetarians. You could purchase some veggie caps and transfer the powder or even just open the capsule and add the contents to water/juice, etc. The only brand I know of off hand that is vegan is Sun Chlorella Nutritional Tablets, 500 mg, 600 Count There is a huge difference in price though.

On the label it says "other ingredients: Vegetable Capsule", so I have to assume that they are vegan caps.

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

The label states other ingredients as being plant-based but not the gelatin capsule. There is no mention on the bottle that the product is 100% vegetarian. So, it looks as if the capsules are probably gelatin derived from animal sources.

I have searched my bottle's product label and they do not list the source of the collagen. I'm afraid that the product is not vegetarian friendly, which I'm concluding because the capsules are made of animal gelatin.. Sad for me too, since I am indeed a vegetarian.... I hope this helps...

Gelatin is not made of plant. Usually it is made from cow. The person who said the bottle said the gelatin was from plant sources did not read the label correctly. That was in reference to the cellulose. Read the label for yourself. Even jello is non-vegetarian.

In other words is this gelatin made of cattle or swine? Hi Orianna. It's probably made of 'both' as most gelatins are a combination of both cow and pig by-products (such as left over skin). I was gonna say that it's not such a big deal since it's really only a tiny amount but now that I've been asked to put it into words, yeah, not such a good thing. It's very easy to overlook such minute ingredients but overall it can (and often does) make a difference. It's apparent now that I must have been 'asleep' to have overlooked this factor. I will continue to purchase 'activated charcoal' but no longer from Nature's Way. We should always look for the 'Vegetarian Capsule' label before making a purchase. Thank you for bringing this to my attention! ;)

I'm not sure, the bottle says Non-GMO soft gel capsule (gelatin, glycerin and purified water). I'm sure you could call them directly and they would be happy to help you! NatureWise : 541-201-3036. Hope that helps!

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.

The capsules are like any other. They are like what you get when you take vitamins, such as Omega 3. I think they are Vegan.

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.

About the lanolin, I'm not sure whether that would be considered vegetarian or not. It's definitely NOT vegan.The gelatin is most likely NOT vegetarian. There are vegetarian equivalents to gelatin, but they are usually labeled "vegetarian gelatin", "vegan gelatin" or perhaps "agar-agar".
