The bottle of Liquid C from Kal that we are using says it contains no added Yeast, wheat, corn, milk, egg, soy, glutens, sugar, artificial colors, startch or perservatives. Is the concerns about the natural flavors a phenol concern or could there be gluten hidden in it. I thought it would be safe because the bottle said no added glutens. My daughter does not appear to have problems with fruits and veg. We use No-Fenol to help with yeast. We also do not have a problem with corn. Is this the concern about sorbitol? Is there another reason why this might be unsafe? Do you know of a product which I could look into or where to begin searching? Kirkman does not have a liquid and starts out at 250mg. We are starting slower than that. I did contact a pharmacist who is looking for me and hopefully will find something appropriate. If it sounds like I am confused it is because I am. I just want to learn and make sure I am doing the right thing. Thanks, Melinda Our allergens are to cow's milk, gluten, egg, peanuts and vanilla We are SCD Houston's trio enzymes Antigen for egg probiotic- Kirman bio inulin free multi-vit/mineral recently stopped epa/dha until I learn more Vit C from Kal Mag chlor - liquid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should contact the manufacturer and ask what is in the natural flavors. Many times they won't give you a list, but if you itemize what your concerns are, they will tell you if any of those items are present. > We also do not have a problem with corn.

I just know that it can be a problem. > Do you know of a product which I could look into or where to begin > searching? For vitamin C, if you don't have corn issues, what about just going to a local health food store and finding one on the shelf that does not have a lot of added ingredients? That's what I do. > Kirkman does not have a liquid and starts out at 250mg. We are > starting slower than that. If you want to buy from Kirkman, buy the 250mg and give half of it, or less.
