What is the origins of this SOD, from bovine or plant?

Glisodin is plant based, but I don't believe pure SOD is. Prior to the development of Glisodin animal sources were the only place for SOD, but it was essentially inneffective. Unless they've found a different source for something similar to Glisodin I have to assume this is animal based.

The supplemental facts I have read, do not state either. The ingredients as listed are: S.O.D. Complex: Superoxide Dismutase (2,000 McCord Fridovich units with naturally occurring Glutahione Peroxidase) and Catalase @ 400mg per serving. S.O.D. Support Base: Rosemary Leaf, Green Tea Leaf Extract, Calcium D-Glucarate, Ellagic Acid and Grape Seed Extract @ 70 mg each. Other Ingredients: Maltodextrin, gelatin capsule, cellulose, glyceryl triacetate and magnesium stearate. As far as SOD 1 or SOD 2, I am unaware.

I don't believe it's from either bovine or plant. I think it's completely synthetic. In any event, Life Extension GliSODin is a higher quality brand and you'll see a difference in your appearance after about three months.

It is from cattle slaughtered for food. The blood is dried and is good for keeping deer and rabbits out of the garden plus it is loaded with nitrogen which plants need.

I don't know if the product is derived out of GMO's. Most plant / animal sources are these days,

I did some research and couldn't find anything regarding contamination at the farm the leaves are gown on. The seller details states that the leaves are grown on Nagata Farm, I did find this, maybe it will help. http://www.teamuse.com/article_110701.html

Don't know but I thought it was bovine. It's been 6 months since my order. Sorry

Well it says on the label this is from mexico. This particular plant originates down south here in the US and I would guess mexico also.I read somewhere that organic is not the important factor with jojoba oil. That organic doesn't say much about quality. More important is unrefined, cold pressed, virgin (first pressed). Haven't bought this brand yet, but based on reviews, it seems like the description from the seller rings true, that its top grade stuff.

B12 comes from bacteria in the ground. That is how animals get it, not from their gut. Due to over-farming (to feed factory farmed animals) the soil is depleted of most nutrients and factory farmed animals are given B12 supplements. Vegans can get it from supplements, or from not washing veggies very well, since it's in dirt (no thanks! I'll stick to supplements or fortified foods for B12).

If I remember correctly, this is from Columbus, OH. Where it actually comes from, I don't know. The website of the company is www.rootnaturally.com. You might be able to find the state of origin there.

It says on bottle "derived from bovine source" Bovine means an animal of the cattle group, which also includes buffaloes and bisons; cow, heifer, bull, bullock, calf, ox, bison. (Does not mention pig source)

I think it is made from the inside scrapings hides of cattle. Not sure but you can go to their web page and check it out.

I have no idea. As far as I know it's chemically synthesized in a lab. There must have been something organic as a raw material; but I don't know what that was.

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.

Yes its raw, unprocessed, organic. It is not from one type of flower. That is monoculture farming and not a practice of most organic farms.

I dont have a firm answer but If it was 100% grass fed, they would make it really clear on the label. Looks like it might be from cows that are pasture fed some few hours a week or something vague. Usually, when a label is vague, there is a reason. If it is USA sourced and grass fed, it would likely say organic. So, there seems to be some reason why its not organic. I would like to know as well.

Hello, I am sorry I took so long to get back to you! In answer to your question, I was told the gelatin is made from animal derived product. Although it does not come from cattle, Nature Made products come primarily from pork sources. I hope that has been of some help! Linda

It is organic, so it is non-gmo, but it may be hybrid. I don't think it's the ancient grain.
