Garden of Life 

     I was looking into vitamins for little girl and wanted to get her one that was wheat and corn free. Although she is not allergic to corn and wheat these ingredients do have negative affects on healthy children. Sometimes from the plants themselves, some from the chemicals used on them and sometimes from the way they are stored.

     I posted a question to Garden of Life (this is a company from the author of Makers Diet- who cured his health issues with probiotics and a healthy diet. The response surprised me because it is a known fact in the nutritional community that corn is not healthy.

Their response: Thank you for your email and interest in Garden of Life's products.  Vitamin Code Kids does not contain wheat products, however it is not labeled as wheat free. 

Unless stated on our label, we do not guarantee that our products are corn free.

At Garden of Life we source only premium ingredients and work with manufacturers who have the highest quality standards and follow GMPs (Good Manufacturing Practices) set by the FDA.  After more than ten years as a leader in whole food, premium, science based nutritional support products, we understand our customer’s concerns and needs and always seek to inform and empower you on your journey toward extraordinary health.  We provide as much information as possible when labeling, especially with regard to food sources.  With regard specifically to corn, only products labeled as “corn free” may be relied upon by those who are highly concerned with corn in their diets.  We do not make this claim on Garden of Life products and do not test our finished goods for either the intentional or potential accidental presence of corn.  Corn is one of the most common and prevalent sources for many raw materials used in nutritional products and is therefore present in virtually every manufacturing facility and production line used throughout the industry.  As safety is our primary concern, we recommend that you do not use our products if you are allergic to corn.

Higher standard nutritional supplements have dedicated corn and wheat free facilities! In fact those higher standard supplement companies do not use corn.Corn is a cheap filler. There are some good vitamins out there that do not use cheap fillers.
