Guest guest Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Almost all natural vitamin E worldwide comes from soy. However, this vitamin E is extracted from soy, highly purified and then isolated. There are no soy proteins or soybean oil found in the finished vitamin E raw material that is added to the Cod Liver Oil. Therefore, no soy proteins or soybean oil are found in our Cod Liver Oil products. It is my understanding that Dr. Mercola recommends only against the use of soy proteins and whole soy foods. I do not believe a restriction of soy foods extends to natural, purified and isolated vitamin E from soy. Regards, Johanek Educational Coordinator J.R. Carlson Laboratories, Inc. " It doesn't matter to me what their chemical analysis may be regarding their final product, I still have a reaction to Carlson's. Every time I try to use their product, I get severe GI side affects, mainly diarrhea. The only other food product that gives me this severe problem is unfermented soy products.
