We removed iodine sourced from kelp, to keep our ingredients clean and free from contaminants that are often found in the ocean (kelp source).
We made some updates to our inactive ingredients, including increased malic acid and monk fruit, and added xanthan gum and potassium chloride. You may notice a change in flavor. The xanthan gum and potassium chloride were added to help improve the tablet stability and consistency.
We also decreased the amount of CoQ10 due to an improved raw material (bioavailability and potency).
These changes all help to improve the consistency, flavor, and stability of our product!
