Why We Use Absolutely No Additives

Stearates found in supplements are hydrogenated fats such as magnesium

stearate, stearic acid and ascorbyl palmitate. They are made by hydrogenating

cottonseed or palm oil and are used throughout the supplements industry as

lubricants; they are added to the raw materials so that machinery will run at

maximum speeds.

Stearates coat every particle of the nutrients, so the particles will flow

rapidly. This ensures that production schedules will meet profit targets.

These substances decrease the absorption of nutrients; in a published study,

the

percent dissolution for capsules after 20 minutes in solution went from 90%

without stearates to 25% with stearates. Individuals with impaired digestion

may have particular difficulty absorbing nutrients coated with stearates.

According to Udo Erasmus, in his book Fats and Oils, cottonseed oil has the

highest content of pesticide residues of all commercial oils. In the

hydrogenation process, the oil is subjected to high heat and pressure in the

presence

of a metal catalyst for several hours. The resultant stearates contain

altered molecules, derived from fatty acids, which may be toxic. The metal

catalyst may also contaminate the stearates produced.

How Much Hydrogenated Lubricant Oil Are You Getting With Your Supplements?

Up to 5% of the average 500 mg capsule or tablet is magnesium stearate. That’

s 25 milligrams. Suppose you take 8 capsules or tablets a day. That’s 250 a

month – or 6,250 mg of this hydrogenated oil, nearly one-quarter ounce. That

works out to about 3 ounces of hydrogenated oil a year, from just 8 pills a

day.

The sole purpose of using these oils is to make the machines run faster.

Supplements can be made without them – it just takes more time, care and

attention to detail. Our exclusive process yields absolutely pure supplements

– no

lubricants, binders, flowing agents, fillers, dyes or additives of any kind –

only the pure nutrients.

I wish I could afford to be picky about stearates. But I do not have

a large discretionary income. Many of the supplements I take do not

seem to be available w/o stearates, even if I had the cash to buy

them.
