Is the sorbitol used to make this derived from corn?

That's question the manufacturer should be able to answer. Google for their website and give them a call.

I don't know. So, let me list the ingredients from the box for you: sodium cocoyl isethionate, stearic acid, water, sodium lauroyl sarcosinate, sodium isethionate, sorbitol solution, ceteareth-20, propylene glycol, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl monostearate, white petrolatum, simethicone, polyethylene glycol monostearate, titanium dioxide, sorbic acid, BHT. Does that help you?

Hi, It does not mention corn on the package. It just states that it is made of sodium cocoyl isethinate, stearic acid, water, sodium lauroyl, sarcosinate, sodium isethionate, sorbitol solution, ceteareth-20, propylene glycol, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl monostearate, white petrolatum, simethicone, polyethylene glycol monostearate, titanium deoxide, sorbic acid, BHT. Free of dyes, lonolin,, freagrances, parabens, formaldehyde and gluten free. My dermatoligist recommended it so that is what I'm trying for now. It does lather good and doesn't seem to leave a film like some soaps do. So far I like it. Hi, It does not mention corn on the package.

This is what the company said regarding this: "None of our products contain corn, or corn derived products." If anyone has specific questions, I feel it is always best to ask the company directly so one gets the correct information & not second-hand.

According to the information listed on the container - Ingredients: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Nonfat Milk, Contains 2% or Less of Cornstarch, Soy Lecithin, Glycerine, Salt, Natural and Artificial Flavors, Caramel Color, Yellow 6. So it is not corn free. It be sure it meets your needs, check with the manufacturer.

Probably synthetic. I contacted the company re another product & here's their comprehensive reply. Also, please check the link at the bottom as it has more good info;) Thank you for your recent correspondence. Due to customer feedback and response, Life Extension is in the process of transitioning our product line to include ingredients derived only from non-GMO sources. Most newly-launched products will be free of ingredients derived from GMOs. Existing products with corn and soy-based active ingredients are in process of having the labels updated to list when soy and corn-derived active ingredients have been certified to be from non-GM food crops. As the labels are updated the information will be transferred to the product descriptions on our website and directory. Currently Life Extension already offers several premium quality non-GMO products. A list of Non-GMO Life Extension products is attached as a PDF for your reference. This list is not all inclusive and was last updated 11/4/2013. We do not have plans at this time to use the Non-GMO Verified Project; however, we appreciate your suggestion and will forward it to our quality control department for consideration in future product formulations. For more information on Life Extension's commitment to purity and quality, please reference the following document: http://www.lef.org/Vitamins-Supplements/Health-Nutrition-Awards/Good-Manufacturing-Practice.htm If you have any additional questions, please e-mail us or call the advisor helpline at (800) 226-2370; international customers dial 001-954-202-7660.

Their xylitol is derived from corn fibers, you can check out the FAQ section at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol and the ever popular wikipedia entry for more general info- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylitol

I like the fact that this is low sugar. But as it is not organic, the corn syrup and soya lecithin it contains are no doubt derived from GMO sources. I'll pass.

No. Both are healthy sweetener alternatives from different plant sources. Xylitol should come from a birch source rather than corn, because of the GMO issue often associated with the latter.

No corn listed. 750mg derived from sweet potato powder...which usually provides: Ceramide 1mg and Amino Acid Complex 120mg

The majority of sources state that erythritol is made by fermenting glucose, which is derived from a variety of plants. Corn consists of dextrose, a different type of sugar. While the carbohydrates from corn can be hydrolyzed into glucose, I don't know if that is done in the case of erythritol (I imagine it's a costly process). Taking this into consideration, I would say that erythritol is not made from corn (though I'm not the manufacturer and can't say for certain).

I know this one is or I wouldn't have bought it. I checked on the product there is no corn in this one, however I am not sure what you mean by which ones as I have only bought this one......hope this helps

Why? Simply so your dog will like the taste. Personally, I'd rather the sorbitol not be included, and I was shocked to see that it was the number one ingredient in most of the pet dental products that I've purchased, as it's mostly derived from corn syrup. And as I read more and more labels, I'm learning the sorbitol is the main ingredient in almost every pet dental product on the market, and why I going to stop purchasing commercial pet dental products that contain it. So, very good question Ralph E. Boy. And as to why vets recommend it. Well, vets don't make much money from healthy dogs with good teeth. Reminds me of the all the doctors and dentists who handed out lollipops and suckers to kids. Why? Simply so your dog will like the taste.

Hey ggoose: The answer is: yes-ish. I spoke to two different people at Bob's and got the same answer, so I'm inclined to trust them. They said that the corn comes from single source farms using non-GMO seeds. However, they cannot account for cross pollination with potential GMO corn. So, it's as non-GMO as one can get short of testing all seeds prior to planting.

Unfortunately, while the picture of the label on Amazon only showed dextrose, which is an isomer of glucose, the ingredients have changed. They now include xylitol, a sugar alcohol and sweetener usually produced from corncobs.

I have a Wonder Mill and it grinds this corn just fine. Here's what Wikipedia says:"Most of the corn grown in the United States today is Yellow Dent or a closely related variety derived from it.[2] Dent corn is the variety used in food manufacturing as the base ingredient for cornmeal flour (used in the baking of cornbread), corn chips, tortillas and taco shells."
