Is this considered a PLANT Ceramide? Is Wheat a Plant? It's all a little confusing. Sure the outside of the capsule is" vegetarian"

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.'

wheat is a cereal grain. this product is also available in rice capsules if you are allergic to wheat. both are vegetarian.

There are many different kinds of ceramides in the animal, plant, and bacterial world. Ceramides are a family of fatty compounds found throughout the human body. They are naturally found in organs such as our skin and brain and participate in valuable physiological functions such as cell signaling and cellular metabolism. This contains plant based ceramides from wheat. The ceramide content of skin decreases with age and leaves the skin vulnerable to wrinkling and sagging. Wheat ceramides have been shown to concentrate in the skin where they form a seal to protect against moisture loss. Plant based ceramides are present in many foods that we eat such as corn, rice, root vegetables, and wheat.

it is organic, so I believe so. but I never called the manufacturer to check. you can, i'm sure. also, wheat is not approved to be gmo, but that never stops anyone, right?

Hi Luna,I checked the bottle and it says it "suitable for vegetarians" The other ingredients it list are these: Microcrystalline Cellulose, Silica, Vegetable Stearic Acid, Vegetable Cellulose, Vegetable Magnesium Stearate, Vegetable Glycerin.This is as much information as I can provide as I am not a vegetarian or an authority that can speak to the best possible supplement to use if anyone is. I found the product to be very good for myself...I hope you find the best match for yourself very soon.Best Carla

I am looking at the label and all it says the ingredients are is Calcium 55mg, potassium 75mg garcinia cambogia extract . And it says vegetarian capsules but not what kind that they are. I hop that answers it. I would not take it unless I knew which vegetables since soybean is a vegetable.

And if you dont know what Ceramide-PCD and Rice-based/gluten free phytoceramides are and the difference/advantage of taking it is, then do your research. This is the Ferrari of phytoceramides much lighter and more effective than gluten based phytoceramides from wheat or sweet potatoes.

Hi. I am not vegan or do I always buy organic but according to the label it says: Contains no apple fiber, rice flour, artificial colors or preservatives. Vegetarian. Also under the supplement facts it lists the blends that are organic which is most of them: all of the juice blends, and most of the poten-zyme whole food matrix, which are the grasses and sprouts, and most of the veggie juice blends. Hope this is somewhat helpful.Thanks.

To my knowledge, it is not plant based. Initially, I had thought that it was plant based. I have actually found another calcium supplement that I will try as soon as I finish the Garden of Life order.

To my understanding these capsules are vegetarian based. I am a Vegan and I had to make sure Vegan was in the description.

I am concerned about this also but just quit taking my multi-vitamin because it had folic acid in it instead of folate so... Also, while looking at my Vitamin E pill, it is oil based, as is the vitamin A and Vitamin D. This capsule is a medium capsule of dry stuff so how can it have 100% of Vitamins A (as retinyl acetate), C (as ascorbic acid), D (as ergocalciferol), and E (as di-alpha-tocopherylacetate) ??? I'll try it for two months and see if it can hydrate and/or rejuvenate my skin from the ceramides (label says: Ceramides (providing glycolipids, phytoceramides, and glycosylceramides).

Not knowing the answer, I checked the label and the only ingredient which could have been from an animal source was zinc. I called the company and they stated the zinc was not from an animal source. The product should be safe for vegetarians.

As per the research I did ... no I don't so. But I did buy a sweet potato ceramide replacement - DEVA Vegan Ceramide Skin Support. There was a reason they didn't show the back of the bottle for this other product. Although it has 750 mg of sweet potato powder, it only has 1 mg of ceramide as opposed to the 350mg of phytoceramides recommended and available in the Life Extension Lipowheat ceramide supplement.

It's not vegan, the capsule is gelatin. They do sell a vegetarian version, but instead of gelatin it's made of carrageenan (+ other ingredients).

Vitamin A, C,D,E, Ceramide-PCD (providing glycopids, phytocermides & glycosylcerimides). Other ingredients: Vegetable cellulose capsule, Purified Water, Magnesium Stearate, Stearic acid, Silon dioxide. This is right off of the label. Hope this helps you.

Hi Amelia,There is no wheat in Revive phytoceramides whatsoever. The only place that wheat is mentioned is that "rice is superior to 350 mg of wheat ceramides" in our Amazon product description. You can be assured that our product is gluten free as stated and made from rice. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you!

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

It's just gluten free, not vegetarian. There is no indication as to the source of the fats used to make the product. However, if the product were also vegetarian it would likely be noted as such.
