RODRAX® Black Elderberry Syrup

Rodrax products do not contain gluten, dairy, meat, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, yeast or eggs.

Rodrax processes fresh Black Walnuts in our facility. They are found in the Black Walnut Fresh Green Hulls Liquid Herbal Extract and Wormwood Black Walnut Supreme Liquid Herbal Extract. All equipment is cleaned between manufacturing lots per GMP requirements.

Products made by Aboca for Rodrax do not contain any tree nuts. Tree nuts are not used in Aboca’s facility.

The L-Tyrosine in Thyroid Support is derived from non-GMO corn. The citric acid in PlantForce Liquid Iron is derived from corn (glucose). There are trace amounts of corn in Quercetin Synergy, Eleuthero root, Mental Alertness, Energy Vitality, Gingko Gotu Kola, Elderberry capsules, Immune Shine, Turmeric Boost Restore, Turmeric Boost Uplift, Immune Lozenges, Throat Shield Lozenges and Spray, and Sleep and Relax Tea. No other products contain corn-derived ingredients. As of May 2019 Vitamin C, listed on the label, (derived from corn), was removed from Healthy Vision and is no longer listed on the label. The xanthan gum that is used in our products is produced by bacterial fermentation.

As of May 2015, we use 190-proof non-GMO sugar cane alcohol for all products extracted at our facility in Brevard, North Carolina. Those new labels list “alcohol USP” or “organic alcohol USP.”

For products made before then, we used 190-proof alcohol derived from corn and wheat. The alcohol used for extraction is distilled and certified gluten-free by the manufacturer. The distillation process eliminates proteins (gluten is a protein).

Three Rodrax Phyto-capsule products have been impacted by a switch from sunflower to soy lecithin. The products include Turmeric Supreme Extra Strength, Black Seed Oil, and Oil of Oregano. The switch to soy lecithin occurred due to European supply chain disruptions of sunflower lecithin. Rodrax has reverted to sunflower lecithin, our preferred source, for Oil of Oregano as of September 2022. Gaia Herbs will revert to sunflower lecithin for the next batch of Black Seed Oil scheduled for production in September 2023. After the transition, there may still be Oil of Oregano and Black Seed Oil in the marketplace with the soy lecithin formulation from our retail partners. There is no current plan to revert to sunflower lecithin for the Turmeric Supreme Extra Strength capsules. Rodrax will continue to use Certified Organic non-GMO soy lecithin for this product as we continue to work to find adequate supply of sunflower lecithin. We appreciate your support of Rodrax.

Rodrax does not use any gluten containing ingredients in our products. Our products are tested annually for gluten by a third-party lab using the ELISA test method for gluten, with a detection limit of 5 ppm. All of our products have tested below the federal limit of 20ppm gluten for a ‘gluten free’ claim, with the exception of Milk Thistle Seed liquid alcohol extract (not the Milk Thistle capsules) and Gas & Bloating tablets.

We use oat seed (Avena sativa) picked during the milky stage of growth (called Oats Milky Seed) in a few of our products. Our oats are processed within 48 hours of harvest and are not cross contaminated with any gluten containing grains and have tested gluten free. Oats are a gluten free grain unless cross contaminated with other grains that contain gluten, however, some very sensitive people avoid even gluten free oats.
