Safety Considerations for OptiCore Pro
Biotin & Lab Tests
At 2,500 mcg, biotin can interfere with certain lab tests, including some thyroid and cardiac tests. Tell your healthcare provider and lab about biotin supplements before testing.
Soy Allergy
The label states the product contains soy. Avoid use if you have a soy allergy, unless a healthcare professional confirms it's appropriate.
Fo-Ti & Liver Health
Fo-Ti has been associated with reports of liver injury. Speak with a professional first if you have a liver condition or take medications that affect the liver.
Ingredient FAQs
Does the ingredients label disclose every botanical amount?
No. The 11-botanical blend is listed under one combined 179.5 mg weight, not as individual amounts per plant.
Is OptiCore Pro vegetarian-friendly?
The capsule shell is hypromellose (vegetable), not gelatin. That alone doesn't confirm every ingredient or process meets a specific vegetarian or vegan standard — check with the seller if that matters to you.
Can I take OptiCore Pro with my multivitamin?
Possibly, but review combined nutrient totals first, especially biotin and fat-soluble vitamins, and ask a healthcare professional or pharmacist about duplication.
