Is there Soya and Wheat in the Life Long Vitality?
- dōTERRA strives to follow all regulatory requirements when labeling its products. At times, due to changing regulations, dōTERRA will update a label to meet new requirements. Because the FDA is now requiring declaration of any of the eight major allergens used in a fermentation process to make enzymes for supplements, minor changes have been made to the Microplex VMz and Vegan Microplex VMz labels. This regulation applies to all supplements sold in the US, including dōTERRA. Because wheat was used in the fermentation process to make some of the enzymes in the products, we are declaring “Contains Wheat” in the ingredient section of the labels. This is required even though the wheat was likely consumed in the fermentation process and we have tested Microplex VMz and found no gluten at the detection levels of the test. We remain flexible in the face of changing regulations and constantly work to be compliant and transparent. The growing medium for the glycoprotein matrix vitamins and minerals we use in Microplex VMz® is a soy product. After the growing process, the soy is removed and the vitamins and minerals are standardized for potency. If there is any soy remaining, it would be in very, very small amounts. Because a soy product is used in the process, we are required to label it as containing soy.
