Kashrut – Vegan Vitamin
Question
May one take an oral vitamin marketed in the USA and certified as vegan, containing no animal-derived ingredients, even though it does not have kosher supervision?
Answer
Shalom,
Since it does not have a pleasant taste, is only meant to be swallowed and is intended for medicinal purposes, it is permitted.
