Who is their source for the sunflower oil? How do we know if it's nonGMO if we cannot prove the source?

If you need more info other than what's stated on the bottle: "non-GMO" and "all of the ingredients are from plant/mineral sources", you would need to contact Deva directly.

Sometimes you just have to trust the company if they say it is non-GMO. It is their reputation at stake. You could call them just to verify it is non-GMO also.

I called the company today and asked where their ingredients were sourced and who manufactures them since the container says "Manufactured for". The manufacturer is "Proprietary information", and while they stated they conduct stringent testing, they could not guarantee that any of the ingredients are NOT sourced from China.

Definitely NOT Sunflower. There is a small print disclosure at the bottom of the label the says it is Soy based.

It is not olive oil. You should research it so you know what you are getting. Some people feel it is safe, others think it is a very unhealthy oil. I use this particular brand because it is non-GMO.

Why would you wonder if castor oil, palm oil, and coconut oil are natural or not? Coconut oil comes from coconuts, castor oil from the seeds of the Castor plant, and palm oil from the palm fruit. Those are all things that grow out of the earth--that's about as natural as you can get! But if you are questioning the efficacy of this product because of those additions, the answer really would have more to do with how much of this supplement you plant to take per serving and why. :)

I agree with the frustration of how many food products on Amazon do not list the ingredients... I think they are trying to hide it. I looked at the Samai website, and it said: Plantains, Sea Salt and Non-Hydrogenated Palmolein oil.

Sunflower oil is an omega 6. I'm curious if the amount causes a 3 to 6 ratio that negates taking the supplement since they don't explicitely state how much 6 the sunflower oil contributes.

Why/how would natural strawberry flavor and tocopherols relate to the non-GMO verified and organic?

Nothing on the bottle says anything about the sources. I would look at they website, it details manufacturing, standards, etc. They strive for non-GMO and have strict standards and an open plant to physicians. You could give them a call to confirm that products are not sourced from China. Hope this helps.

I checked with Baar Products, Inc. as to the percent concentration of Castor Oil in the product. they would NOT answer. Only replied that it was a "proprietary blend." It's time to vate with our wallets and NOT patronize companies who doge questions and provide poor customer service.

Okay, I contacted the company and this is what they said: "Our Jojoba oil is organic, but our facility is not certified USDA Organic. This is something we are working on, but it is a timely and costly process, so at the moment, all we can say is that it is organic. The plants are grown organically, and no chemicals are introduced in the extraction process, so the oil is 100% pure."I will take their word on it for this one. Especially since I've been reading through the reviews on this and people with sensitive skin are saying that it is pure. I have not tried the product yet, however. I hope this helps.

As far as I know it's non GMO. That being said no place does the Mfg say anything either way on this site. And I've never gone to the Mfg's original site. If you find out any more info please let me know. I hope this helps. 01/12/2014@02:16

I called them to see what their source of the vitamin MK-4 is and they said they could not divulge that, as it was proprietary info. I then asked if they would certify that it was not a genetically modified substance and they said "no we cannot say either way". I think it rather strange that if it is not GMO, they would not want to say so.

I made an inquiry via Annie Chun's website about this and was told they use non-GMO Canola Oil and are working on receiving a GMO-Free certification of some sort.

You also should know that H&B; Oils is a questionable company, claiming that their oils are organic but with absolutely no proof and no certification. Also their address and location is never on the product. Just try to find them. Impossible. Scammers.
