Why does the packaging state that these softgels are free of "BSE" Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, (Mad Cow) ???

Well duh! You don't want to take a chance of bone meal from BSE infected cows.

Yes, soft gels are not vegetarian and do contain gelatin from animal sources. However, Doctors Best does make this same product in Vegetarian capsules that do not contain animal gelatin.

The same problem existed with the last shipment I received. I haven't checked the expiration date but, that is the first thing to check to see if the batch is out of date. If not the case, then I assume these packages are being subjected to extreme heat which would definitely dry out the contents and in my opinion cause them to go from soft chews to hard chews which is what we received.

No, the box states that it contains MCHA a highly absorbable calcium derived from BSE - free, Australian grass fed, free range cattle. New Chapter makes a plant sourced, whole food calcium called Bone Strength take care.

The blister pack is one issue - I notice they recommend refrigerating these after opening which would help preserve. The more important point to me is that these have no mannitol (stomach upsetting) in them and that they are a true 400mg dose of SAM-e - not 400mg of the salt compound as many others are.

I don't think there is any GMO's in this product. The label does not say MSG, so that is not in it. My dog has used these for 7 years. His Vet. recommends and sells these. We tried giving him other chews, but these are the only ones he likes.These are the only ones I feel safe giving him.

The boxes I reviewed have a shelf life until 2/2015. Also, not sure I mentioned this on my review, but the boxes are BPA-free and the contents are GMO-free.

Everyone - this is what I want to know and I will be contacting the company to find out. I want to know what is NOT on the label nor on their website nor could the guy at Whole Foods give a definitive answer (he's waiting to hear back from me on this) when he spoke to the company.If they source from cows that are injected with rBST - I want nothing to do with it. It's important. Why would I drink what I won't eat in my beef?If anyone has heard from the company on this, I think all of us should know.

CJ to be completely honest I don't have any idea. I haven't eaten any yet. All I know is they are non GMO and I am storing them at the moment

Of course not, they're organic which it's 100% GMO free or non GMO. Contact the seller for further inquiries.

Package only says all natural, no chemicals, no preservatives and no additives. Nothing about GMOs so I suspect they are not GMO free or they would be touting it but I don't know for sure.

The reason for the maltitol is this product is PETA-certified Vegan, as are all Sibu products. can't get a vegan soft-gel without maltitol and carrageenan. The amount of these ingredients is negligible.

They aren't softgels but they are time release. They are small. Smaller than an asprin. About the size of a claritin or a bit bigger.

The lable states veg capsules. I see nothing in the ingredients that should be of concern to vegans. I do feel these help me with mental clarity.

I don't know. The packaging is different today from what I bought back in December. Back then, I thought they were unsulphured. I have lost enthusiasm for products coming from this far away. Next time I'll look for dates from California. First order really good, second order a tad mushy.

None of our products are tested on animals. That symbol and statement is printed on the product and can be seen in one of the product images. We checked the website you referred to, goodguide.com and were unable to find our brand nor any of our products listed. Since the email address you referred to is not associated with our company whatsoever, perhaps you have our product confused with another brand?
