What are Halal vitamins?
halal vitamins are vitamins that follow Islamic instructions for halal food. Creating halal vitamins means knowing the source of components and how they were processed. One of the primary reasons why vitamin is not halal is to include gelatin rendered from animals such as pigs that are strictly forbidden. Although many companies try to use only products in their vitamins only products for release from the Qur'an, if they are not certified, they cannot be guaranteed to be halal. The book says there are certain animals that are considered unclean or unhealthy, and therefore it is forbidden to consume in any form. In non -Muslim industrial countries, where halal diet is not so widespread, the source of many seemingly harmless ingredients is overlooked. The same type of emulsifier can be extracted from Halal sources such as soya and some other plants. There are no existing regulations on the origin of these components in many countries, so it mayt difficult to know their exact source.
Other parts of vitamins that could cause problems include vitamins A and D. These vitamins are sometimes fortified by polysorbate 80, another emulsifier that can be inferred from animal fats. The problem is that the source animal is often unknown, which means that - if it is not certified - there is no warranty that they are Halal vitamins. However, it is rare that these vitamins already fortify with animal fat.
Some liquid vitamins are explicitly prohibited because they contain a small amount of alcohol. They may include some over -the -counter children. Liquid vitamins also have many stabilizers, dyes and other ingredients that could be extracted from so -called unclean animal parts or fats.
There are many ingredients that could be included in over -the -counter vitamins that may not be listed on the package so just know which components are haLal, not always enough. However, many organizations will confirm that vitamins are permissible and that all components and production process are Halal. Since 2011, there have been several commercially available Halal vitamins around the world.
