RE: Propylene Glycol--Legal?

[Guest guest]

Okay, is this stuff legal? Propylene glycol--I know it's totally

articifical...I didn't see it listed on the BTVC website's legal/illegal

list.

Thanks,

Hello--No, it's not Miralax, it's an artificial flavoring. I called the

company, and they said it has no nutritional value at all, so therefore no

sugars/artificial sweeteners/carbohyrates, etc. Just propylene glycol. It

came in a kit to make lollipops (from Miss Roben.com) prior to us starting

this--then you added your own corn/rice syrup. Just wondering if I could

still use it.

(Miralax did not work for my son at all...)

Thanks for any input--
