Ingredients & minerals

High Oleic Safflower Oil

Inflammation when consumed in excess due to residual omega-6 fatty acids, potential oxidative stress if improperly stored

Soy Oil

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

M. Alpina Oil

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

Soy Lecithin

Potential estrogenic effects, hexane solvent residues from processing, allergenicity for soy-sensitive individuals

Ferrous sulfate

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

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

Folic acid

Excessive intake may mask vitamin B12 deficiency, potential unmetabolized folic acid concerns at high doses
