Ingredients & minerals

Safflower Oil

High omega-6 fatty acid content, oxidative instability, potential excessive omega-6 intake concerns

Soy Oil

High omega-6 content, oxidative instability, hexane solvent extraction, potential endocrine activity due to isoflavone residues

Cupric Sulfate

Toxic if ingested, skin and eye irritation, respiratory issues upon inhalation, potential environmental toxicity

Folic acid

Excessive intake may mask vitamin B12 deficiency, potential unmetabolized folic acid accumulation

Sodium selenate

Potential skin irritation and sensitization at higher concentrations, narrow safety margin for selenium exposure, possible selenium toxicity with excessive exposure

Ferrous sulfate

Gastrointestinal irritation, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, risk of iron overdose especially in children
