Ingredients & minerals

Safflower Oil

High omega-6 content, oxidative instability, potential to contribute to omega-6/omega-3 imbalance

Soy Oil

High omega-6 fatty acid content, potential oxidative instability, hexane solvent extraction residues, possible estrogenic effects related to soy compounds

M. Alpina Oil

High omega-6 fatty acid content, potential pro-inflammatory effects with excessive intake

Carrageenan

Potential gastrointestinal irritation, possible inflammation-like effects in some studies, sensitization in rare cases

Ferrous sulfate

Gastrointestinal irritation at high doses, potential iron overload with excessive use

Copper Sulfate

Potential toxicity at high doses, gastrointestinal irritation, liver and kidney damage with chronic exposure, not recommended for direct human supplementation without medical oversight
