Natural Flavoring: Is It Really Natural?

The label says "natural flavoring", so it must be from nature right? Not so fast! While the term itself might sound innocent, "natural flavoring" can hide a cocktail of processed chemicals used to enhance taste.

Here are a few surprising truths just for you:

• Its Not Just Fruits and Herbs: Many "natural flavorings" are derived from unexpected sources, sometimes from a beavers anus, or made from genetically modified ingredients- you don't want that in your supplements.
• Chemically processed: While the initial ingredient in the food or supplement might be natural, it often undergoes processing with solvents and preservatives to create a more intense flavor- making it anything but natural.
• No Real Health Benefit: Natural flavors are strictly added just for taste, not nutrition, meaning they add nothing beneficial to your food or your supplements.
