Common questions

Is Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin healthy?

Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin scores 0/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin?

Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin lists 28 ingredients, starting with Vitamin a (as Plant-based beta-Carotene), Vitamin c (as Pureway-c, Rgen), Vitamin D3 (as Cholecalciferol), Vitamin e and Lutein (as Lutemax 20/20 Marigold Flower Extract). Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin?

Transparent Labs Multi Vitamin has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.
