We've received several questions about the Vegetarian/Vegan status of Thompsons Junior Immunofort recently and we took it upon ourselves to clarify whether the product was suitable. Unlike many other Thompsons products the Junior Immunofort does not have the Vegetarian symbol.The product was not officially listed as being Vegetarian friendly so the lovely Amanda (naturopath for Thompsons) did some asking around to find out why the product would not be suitable. The ingredients manual states that no animal ingredients are in the product. After more research the company has officially let us know that the product is suitable for Vegetarians AND Vegans.
We are currently unsure whether this will be reflected on the packaging in the future.
Note: Many of our multivitamins are suitable for Vegetarians. However Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is derived from Lanolin (a wax derived from sheep's wool) which makes them unsuitable for Vegans. Currently our Vegan friendly multivitamins are Thompsons Junior Immunofort and Solgar VM 2000.
