Is there soy or not? In one picture is states soy free, yet in another it state soy lecithin is used? Which is it? And if soy is used is it GMO soy

It contains soy lecithin, which is an oil used to emulsify drinks (and many other products). If you are allergic to soy, this is safe as the allergen (the protein) is removed, much like in soy sauce.

Soy free usually means soy Protein free. Soy lecithin is used in almost all powdered drinks as emulsifier.

Hi Brittany,On Tera's Whey website's FAQ (http://www.teraswhey.com/faqs.html) they say they reformulated their product to have sunflower lecithin instead of soy lecithin. So if you get one with soy lecithin in it, it's probably old.That being said, they do process their products in a facility that may handle soy-based ingredients, which they disclose on their label. Hope it helps!~Heather

I cannot tell from the packaging. But it says that there is less than 1% of soy lecithin.

As of October 2014 the vanilla (and natural) flavored whey does NOT contain soy. I believe they switched from soy lecithin to sunflower lecithin in the past 6 months or so.

My label does not list the ingredients as non-gmo. The label picture in the listing is outdated. I assume this means "no," the soy isn't non-gmo anymore.

I am quite allergic to soy, but not to soy lecithin, minute amounts of which are found in many foods and vitamins. I foolishly ordered this without reading further on other sites about the soy content. "NOW MK-7 contains a highly biologically active form of Vitamin K2 derived from natto, a traditional Japanese fermented soyfood". I am NOW very sick (sneezing wheezing eyes swollen), and it seems likely that this is the cause. I want others that are soy-allergic to know that this may well be allergenic

i just bought the 1.1lb container and the ingredients listed are: undenatured whey protein isolate, non-GMO lecithin, natural vanilla flavor. Then in bold letters it states "contains milk, soybeans" so sadly, this is not the supplement for you if you are trying to avoid soy.

Swanson Sunflower Lecithin Granules (Non-GMO) is what I purchased thru Amazon.com, and it is a very good product. Right now, I don't have the container so that I could give you more information, but I think if you want to order this product thru Amazon, you would be very pleased with the product and you would be able to contact Swanson directly if you have any other questions. Good luck to you - - I don't think you're going to be disappointed!! Judy Grimm

The label says contains soy not may be processed in a facility that processes soy.I believe it is soy oil or possibly soy lecithin.

Upon inspecting the label carefully, I did not find "soy" listed. These are some of the best vitamins I have taken so far and I have tried the pricey and the cheap. I have not been ill for the last year since taking the Alive.

This is liquid soya lecithin, I do not know anything about a non-soy version.

The label does not indicate that these contain soy or lecithin. It does say it does not contain soybeans. Hope this helps!

It is from a soy source, and since 90% or so of all soy is now genetically modified I would be highly surprised if this used non-GMO soy. If they did, they should be stating so as it would be a good selling point.

It does state that it uses a soy lecithin as the phospholipids... not wild about that due all soy being GMO. Still looking for the perfect liposomal C. Heard Mercola has one listed but that it is not a true liposomal C. More research required.

Very little soy. It contains less than 1% non-GMO certified organic soy lecithin.

The protein is 100% whey based but there is a small % (most likely less than 1 - 2%) of soy lecithin as an emulsifier. Since lecithin is a highly refined ingredient there is little to no protein left so it is an incidental ingredient. If it is an allergen concern, recommendation is to avoid. If you are not concerned about allergen, this is an excellent product.

No "organic" labeling. The whey is from cows not treated with rBGH. Lecithin is from non-GMO sunflower seeds. Sweetened with Stevia. Usually I Dont like Stevia, but can't taste its unique flavor in this protein powder. NO...MSG, Acesulfame-K, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, cholesterol, artificial colors, aspartame, sucralose, lactose, or sugar.The only downside I can see, is if you have allergies, it is produced in a factory that processes all the major allergens.I absolutely love this product.
