Re: Vitamin C with Alfalfa

[Guest guest]

Hello Bee,,

To confirm, is it ok to have those " other ingredients " in vitamins? Here is an

article that says silica, magnesium stearate are toxic....

Other Ingredients: Alfalfa (May contain one or more of the

following: magnesium stearate, cellulose, vegetable stearin, dicalcium

phosphate and silica).

+++Hi . Since alfalfa is listed under " other ingredients " it

would be a very small amount and not cause problems. That product is

fine to have.

+++, it is impossible to avoid everything, and some things

like silica or magnesium stearate are needed by the manufacturer so the

capsules or tablets do not stick to their machinery.
