Guest guest Posted October 5, 2001 Report Share Posted October 5, 2001 I had recently heard of a class action lawsuit against Twinlab because they have been using gelatin in their B12 dots and have not listed gelatin as an ingredient. Having not read confirming information, I sent them a note asking if there was gelatin in their product. This is their response: Fri, 5 Oct 2001 10:42:13 -0400 " Product (Twinlab) " <Product RE: B12 Dots Thank you for your inquiry. Our B12 dots have always contained a small amount of gelatin. The most current label does list all ingredients such as: Mannitol, Sorbitol, Croscarmellose Sodium, Cyanocobalamin, Magenesium Stearate, Silica, Cherry Flavor, Gelatin, Malic Acid and Purified Water. Since the two predominant ingredients; cyano cobalamin and cherry flavoring were listed, the ingredients that are in trace amounts were not listed on the label. We have never labeled this as a vegetarian product. We are happy to inform you that Twinlab will introduce a new and improved vegetarian formula in the very near future. Hope this information has helped. Good health to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
