Ingredients & minerals

Vegetable oils

High omega-6 fatty acids leading to oxidative instability, excess intake associated with weight gain and dyslipidemia, potential contamination with pesticide residues and processing solvents

Copper Sulphate Pentahydrate

Toxic if ingested, skin and eye irritation, respiratory irritation, potential for acute poisoning, environmental toxicity

Soy Lecithin

Hexane solvent residues, potential estrogenic effects, allergen presence

Folic acid

Excess intake can mask vitamin B12 deficiency, high doses may have potential cancer promotion concerns in some contexts

Mortierella Alpina Oil

high omega-6, oxidative instability, potential for lipid peroxidation byproducts

Manganese Sulphate

Inhalation toxicity risk in occupational exposure, potential for neurotoxicity at high doses or chronic exposure, skin and eye irritation potential
