Below is a list of some key ingredients along with information on Dairy Free.
Maltodextrin - used as a filler to enhance texture and flavor. Maltodextrin is made from corn, rice or potato starch. If Maltodextrin is made from wheat starch the package must be labeled as 'wheat maltodextrin' per FDA code CFR. Maltodextrin is listed in the CRF as a gras additive, meaning it is generally recognized as safe. If you do not see the word 'wheat' on a product containing Maltodextrin, the food product does not contain wheat protein. Keep in mind you are not eating straight Maltodextrin, this is an ingredient added in small quantities to food products.
Silicon Dioxide is used for flowability in packaging and an important food additive in powdered foods. It is an indispensable part of the food that we eat daily. It is observed that silicon plays a significant role in the development of the bones, so it becomes necessary to include silicon food sources in our diet in order to maintain healthy strong bones and joints, this along with calcium & vitamins is equally important for proper bone growth, healthy skin & nails.
Polydextrose - is an indigestible synthetic polymer of glucose. It is a food ingredient classified as 'soluble fiber' by the USDA. Used to increase the non-dietary fiber content of food, to replace sugar and to reduce calories and fat content. Approved by the FDA in 1981.
