Carrageenan has been inaccurately associated with 'Poligeenan' (a degraded derivative of Carrageenan used in animal products). We have reviewed the vast regulatory safety data on Carrageenan and we are satisfied with its suitability. We only use a small amount of Carrageenan in Omega-3 to help form the capsule itself. We wouldn't use any components unless we are completely satisfied with their safety profile.
