AMLApure is BOTH Vegan and Cruelty-Free
Vegan refers to any food or supplement formulated without ingredients produced by or derived from animals. The majority of vitamin supplements on the market are not vegan — many are derived from animal sources such as gelatin, collagen, fish oil, glycerine, glucosamine, and chondroitin. Even some forms of carotene are sourced from animals.
Even vegan capsules can contain constituents of animal origin, either in the capsule itself or in excipients used during processing. Fully vegan products like AMLApure formulations are an uncommon standard in today's supplement market.
A vegan lifestyle avoids the use of any products linked to animal exploitation. This is where cruelty-free comes into play — products that have not been tested on animals. It is important to note that 'Cruelty-Free' does not always mean 'Vegan,' and 'Vegan' does not always mean 'Cruelty-Free.'
'Cruelty-Free' is a term typically used to describe cosmetics, personal care, and household cleaning products that have not been tested on animals.
Summary

- Cruelty-Free but not Vegan: not tested on animals, but may contain animal ingredients.
- Vegan but not Cruelty-Free: no animal ingredients, but may have been tested on animals.
- Both Cruelty-Free and Vegan: not tested on animals, and contains no animal ingredients. AMLApure products fall into this category.
