Be Ware of Hidden Allergen
I have used Pure Encapusulations for a long time. thinking their products had "pure" ingredients. Well, I just found out that they consistently fail to reveal their hidden corn ingredient. My son has autism and corn-allergy, and I could not figure out why he was not doing well. I tracked down the hidden ingredients of all of his supplements and found the Ascorbyl Palmitate on the ingredient list for the Lithium Orotate by Pure Encapsulations was derived from corn dextrose fermentation. So this product is harmful to individuals with a corn allergy. Yet nowhere on their bottle can you find any mentioning of corn. In fact, it states: "Any product containing ingredients derived from allergens.. is clearly labeled..." This is a false claim, as corn is a common allergy.
