I'm sorry, I read the label and just found that "gelatin" is a component, not the source of it.

The can lists the ingredients as "gelatin" but doesn't tell the source.The company should tell you.Knox Unflavored Gelatine is distributed by Kraft Foods Global, Inc. of Northfield, Il.60093-2753, USA

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.

I suspect you mean gelatin which is a collagen product derived from animal byproducts.

According to the website, the gelatin is from the bones of bovine not from the hooves or skin. You might want to go to their website and research for yourself.

I'm going to chime in, because there seems to be some confusion? It is very likely, this product contains animal products, as gelatin--is typically--made from animal (bovine) bone and marrow. HTH.

Doesn't say on the label, just "gelatin". Try: 1-888-VITAHELP for an answer or their web page: www.sundownnaturals.com.

In other words is this gelatin made of cattle or swine? Hi Orianna. It's probably made of 'both' as most gelatins are a combination of both cow and pig by-products (such as left over skin). I was gonna say that it's not such a big deal since it's really only a tiny amount but now that I've been asked to put it into words, yeah, not such a good thing. It's very easy to overlook such minute ingredients but overall it can (and often does) make a difference. It's apparent now that I must have been 'asleep' to have overlooked this factor. I will continue to purchase 'activated charcoal' but no longer from Nature's Way. We should always look for the 'Vegetarian Capsule' label before making a purchase. Thank you for bringing this to my attention! ;)

I'd have to say bovine, it isn't written on the bottle it just says gelatin. Pork gelatin soinds gross anyways lol

Sorry Carrie, I can't answer your question. I stopped taking it. Gelatin is usually made from animal bones as far as I understand. I know some vitamin companies advertise 'gelatin free' and use some kind of cellulose. My guess would be that there IS gelatin, but I can't say for sure. I can say the product worked well. I did a quick search and it looks like they do have gelatin, but I'd call the company if that's a deal breaker. Hope this helped. :)

Unfortunately not, on the ingredient list, it states there is bovine gelatin in them.

Gelatin is an animal by-product. Whether it's derived from pigs or cows specifically is not known.

well,it help the boby in lot of ways,protein booster,skin health,digetion ,loose weight,drink purifier,it"s ok Gelatin is derived from collagen, an insoluble fibrous protein which is the principal constituent of connective tissues and bones. Cattle hides are the least used gelatin raw material in North America today. Ossein usually requires more liming than cattle hides. Porkskin is currently the most significant raw material source for production of edible gelatin in North America.

Hi, I don't know. I have not yet run across gelatin from grass fed cattle. Thanks for bringing up the question.

Yes, this contains gelatin. I suspect the gelatin is from an animal source, as the glycerin content is listed as "vegetable glycerin". They also contain soy.

Good luck on that question. The last thing you want is bovine sourced gelatin. Due to customer demand vegetarian gelatin is becoming more available. Wake up companies! NOBODY wants potential "mad cow" in their supplements

Anytime any ingredient says Gelatin...it is always animal based. Look on Vitacost.com for Vegan vitamin E...I will be doing the same.
