Question 1

How can these be vegetarian since they contain ox bile extract from cows? Do the words "vegetarian capsules" relate only to the capsule?

Accepted Answer

Hi Alice.. Yes, the bottle says vegetarian CAPSULE. No other place on the bottle do I see vegetarian. I'm not a vegetarian so I don't know the boundaries of what exactly is ok to be consumed ... these capsules contain the BILE of an ox. I googled after seeing your question and read about it - very interesting. All I know is no other supplement has helped me like this one has since having my gall bladder removed. It really, really works for me. I'm so thankful I found these.

Question 3

where are the ox raised and how?

Accepted Answer

In reply to Norma about the disgusting ingredient ox bile, this enzyme formula was made FOR people with gall bladder  issues. Bile is the substancel the GB produces to digest fat and protein. Many people who have gallbladder problems produce too little bile  to digest food properly,, and believe me if you have this problem you will know it! And that is why bile salts are added to this formula. If you are just looking for food digestive enzymes there are plenty out there to choose from that do not contain bile  salts, This formula we are addressing specifically targets the gallbladder.

Question 4

Your description mentions no peanuts, is this processed in a facility with tree nuts?

Accepted Answer

Yes, however there are strict policies in place to prevent cross contamination.
