Answer 1

Some examples:

whey, lactic acid (unless its derived from beets), taurine, glycerin (unless vegetable derived), albumin, casein (or caseinate), some ingredients like lechithin can be derived from either animal or plant, if it doesnt say &quot;vegetable derived&quot; or &quot;plant-based&quot; assume it is animal!

Here&#039;s a link with SOOO many ingredients!!!
