I am not sure about all that stuff that is in it. I have said on these message boards before..I have tried EVERY diet and every medicine and nothing has worked so I am not so concerned anymore about "trigger foods" and things like that because I have not found "certain" things that seem to bother me. For right now I am eating healthy but eating whatever I want and taking DA and it is working just fine for now! I hope it keeps working!!!...I will give you an update if it stops!
