Ask the Pharmacist

Are there traces of soy in VitaDHA?

Dear Alexander,

regarding your request, I would like to inform you that soy is listed on the label as an allergen because the vitamin E in fish oil is extracted from certified non-GMO soybeans, although soy as such is not present in the product.

In upcoming reprints, soy will no longer appear among the allergens because, according to new European regulations, natural Vitamin E from soy is not an ingredient with allergenic characteristics.

Sincerely,

Rosaria Ramondino Pharmacist and Pharmaceutical Chemist
