How is this considered "veggie capsules" when they contain; shells of shellfish & Chondroitin Sulfate from a bovine source?

My bottle doesn't have anything about bovine source...it actually reads "vegetable cellulose" veggie cap. You could go to their web site and check but mine doesn't have anything about shellfish or bovine source.

"Veggie capsules" refers to the capsules themselves which are made from soybean and other plant sources. Regular capsules often contain gelatin, which is made from the boiled skins, bones, ligaments and tendons of cows and pigs.But you're right, the ingredients inside the capsules contain glucosamine from shellfish and chondroitin from a bovine source.Hope that helps :-)Kristina BrooksThe VitaBreeze Team

I'm going to guess that the capsules themselves are made out of some veggie substance? Not the contents within the capsules. You should ask the company that manufactures them to be sure - they've always been very helpful whenever I have contacted them in the past on unrelated ( to your question) matters.

I am reading off the label I have, it states "This calcium is 100% natural, of vegetative origin from seaweed harvested from the seabeds of southwest Ireland. Tested for purity. My vet is a holistic vet and usually quite picky about supplement sources: she recommended it for my home cooked meals.

On the label it says "other ingredients: Vegetable Capsule", so I have to assume that they are vegan caps.

Chondroitin sulfate is manufactured from animal sources, such as cow cartilage. My mistake that I thought it was made from vegetarian source. Thanks for asking me.

My bottle says both "veg capsules" and "gelatin" in the list of ingredients, so I am also confused.

I have no idea. I have only seen capsules sold as either gelatin (of animal origin) or vegan (of plant origin). These are standard gelatin capsules and therefore, I am assuming, of animal origin.

It depends on how strict you are. The bottle says "May contain lactose as a processing aid." Also it says, "Not manufactured with wheat, gluten, soy, egg, fish, shellfish or tree nut ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens." Also, they capsules are made of gelatin, typically made from bovine parts. I would say it's not a vegan product if you are a strict vegan. That said, I love these and take them daily. I am on a Paleo diet, the opposite of vegan.

The capsules are like any other. They are like what you get when you take vitamins, such as Omega 3. I think they are Vegan.

Dear Gamaliel, According to the website of the manufacturer, the only information related to the capsule is "Vegan Capsule (plant cellulose)". If you are looking for specific information, probably calling the manufacturer "Deva Nutrition" is a better option. Sincerely, The Vitamin Corner

The capsules are vegetarian and enteric coated. There are trace amounts of dairy.
