What does vegetarian formula mean for a multivitamin?!


Question: What does vegetarian formula mean for a multivitamin?
Answers:

It means that the vitamin itself is vegetarian, meaning there are no animal products in the vitamin. Gelatin and oyster shells are both commonly found in vitamins. So, a vegetarian vitamin would not have either of those. There may be other non-vegetarian ingredients in regular vitamins too. If you're a vegetarian then get the vegetarian vitamins. If you eat meat then you're fine with regular vitamins.



It could mean that either the vitamin istelf is vegetarian, meaning it doesn't use gelatin or any animals to make. Or it could mean it has higher level of protein, iron, b12, and other things a vegetarian might be lacking in.
