I see that under "other ingredients" there is gelatin, What kind of gelatin is? and if it is animal what is the name of animal?

It is probably the capsule itself that is made from gelatin. If you have vegan concerns you may consider emptying the pills into a shot glass with a splash of water and drinking them. Just give the pill a gentle squeeze at both ends and a bit of a twist and pull and they will come apart easily.

Anytime any ingredient says Gelatin...it is always animal based. Look on Vitacost.com for Vegan vitamin E...I will be doing the same.

There are non-animal capsules, but these are typically marked "vegetarian capsule" or "Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose" or maybe the inconsistent "vegetarian gelatin". Anything like this that just says "gelatin" is almost certainly animal-based.

Hi, I don't know. I have not yet run across gelatin from grass fed cattle. Thanks for bringing up the question.

The label does not stipulate one way or the other, however gelatin is the first ingredient, which I believe is derived from animals.

It doesn't say. It just says gelatin on the bottle. If you would like I can give you their customer service number if you want to call them.

No, it's not. I got these thinking it was, but buried in the ingredients list is gelatin (made of animal bones + tendons).

Yes. Gelatin is exclusively an animal product. It is made from boiling down the bones and connective tissue of animals (usually cows, pigs or fish) and drying it into a powder. All gelatin capsules are animal derived. If you are avoiding animal products, you'll need to find "cellulose capsules".

PS, JB-- Thanks for answering! They should state these things in the description...this does make it vegan (as long as there's no gelatin...)

Thanks for your question J.Watson. Gelatin can come from plants, animals and fish. However, in order to give you the correct answer, I am contacting the manufacture. I'm sure I will hear back from them within a day or two and will post a definite answer here. The Eden Team

Sorry, I studied the entire bottle and it only lists "Gelatin" under "Other Ingredients", and no further breakdown. The other extra ingredient is "Vegetable Glycerin". There is a phone number on the bottle to call with any further questions, which is 1-800-433-2990.

Well it's not vegetarian since it contains gelatin.It may be from pork gelatin or some other source

I didn't mean to just answer yes. I was on my phone when I clicked that. Gelatin is derived from the collagen of animals. That could be cow or pig. Or other animals. Unless it details where they got the gelatin from no one can correctly answer yes or no because we do not know the source of their gelatin.

As per a company representative, there are two gelatines in red containers: one is beef and the other is pork. Per the representative, if the container (product info) says beef (bovine), then the product will only be made of beef; likewise, if the container (product info) says pork (porcine),the product will only be made of pork.

I'm not sure since I haven't tied, "regular gelatin obtained from grass fed cows". If you sell the product I'll try it out. I like what collagen does for me.

The ingredients list includes gelatin. Gelatin, is a substance derived from the processing of animal collagen. There is also a warning label to do not take if you have a medical condition..

The description says vegetarian yet the ingredients state gelatin. Since gelatin is not vegetarian I am not sure what to think.
