Can anyone give advice regarding these ingredients in my vitamins?

hikergurl · 02-12-2012, 09:12 AM

This round (R3) I've been taking a multivitamin, calcium, D3, B complex, magnesium, potassium, acidophilus. I also take DIM per my doctor. These are the "other" ingredients listed on the various bottles. Does anyone see any red flags? I don't know what any of this stuff is. Thanks so much!

cellulose, magnesium stearate, cellulose gum, glycerin, carnauba wax, stearic acid, vegetable cellulose, silica, gelatin, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, pectin, soda ash, guar gum, silicon dioxide, croscamellose sodium, soybean oil (in the vitamin D3)

Hello,

Cellulose converts in a type of sugar in the bloodstream. My multivitamin and magnesium contain cellulose and every time I took them next day I felt it, so I stopped taking them. I'm doing strict protocol, but if you're not maybe you could take them without harm.

Sorry, I don't know

Hi hikergurl. Not sure how strict protocol you are. I didn't cut out things that had various forms of cellulose in them but some people do. If you are strict Simeons, the carnauba wax and the soybean oil are problems. I eliminated everything that had rice flour (a common filler) and oil of any sort. Other than that, the other things look ok to me. HTH
