Isn't gelatin from animals? So not exactly all plant derived or suitable for vegetarians or vegans?

Yes, you are correct. Gelatin is animal derived. This product lists "kosher gelatin" as an ingredient, which I believe is used in making the soft gel. So, although the supplement itself may be all plant derived, the delivery is not. So not vegan or vegetarian as currently offered.

I contacted the company and it is NOT from grassfed cows. (And for at least some of us it DOES matter whether gelatin is from grassfed cattle, whether we view it as a personal health issue or an ethical one.)

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

nope no gelatin listed on the label. the only one i hesitated on was cellulose gel, but that is plant based from what i can determine. :)it appears someone listed the ingredients under the questions and answers. when viewing the product scroll down. :)

No there is no gelatin, these are veggie capsules, difference being that some people may not be able to consume gelatin due to diet or religion

Capsule is made out of gelatin which is an animal product. I don't think it is vegan.

The label that's shown in the Amazon pics clearly says, "Gelatin" which means it's NOT vegetarian. I hate how little accurate information is available on Amazon for supplements. I've spent HOURS trying to find a vegan D3 supplement that doesn't have crap in it. Still searching.

I'm going to chime in, because there seems to be some confusion? It is very likely, this product contains animal products, as gelatin--is typically--made from animal (bovine) bone and marrow. HTH.

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.

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! ;)

Label contains no information regarding source of gelatin. I suggest contacting the manufacturer directly to answer your questions.

I think that they are vegan, it says that they are produced only from vegetable products. They are not gelatin, they are instead a regular hard pill that dissolves under your tongue. It says that not milk products are used in the production. I think they should be fine. Hope this helps!

Other ingredients: gelatin, cellulose gel, water, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide. Doesn't say whether it is vegetarian or not any where on the label

Good luck on that question. The last thing you want is bovine sourced gelatin. Due to customer demand vegetarian gelatin is becoming more available. Wake up companies! NOBODY wants potential "mad cow" in their supplements

Yes, it's vegetarian as I do not see any ingredient that has animal source. This vitamin does not contain gelatin or gluten. Wish my answer helps

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).

The label or the 'othe ingredients' just says 'gelatin', and does not distinguish further. The glycerin is vegetarian. Also included in the 'other ingredients' is is yellow beeswax, and beeswax isn't vegetarian. If you are looking for a pure vegetarian formula, perhaps look elsewhere.
