Carrageenan is not a sweetner but is used as a thickener. It is organic in nature as it comes from red seaweed. While food grade carrageenan is not the same as the degraded variety used in animal tests, I would caution those that have IBS or gastrointestinal problems in using products that contain carrageenan. Note that it is used widely in yogurt and non dairy products such as almond and coconut milks. With that said, I have had no problems consuming the amount in a serving of the MRM on a daily basis. The food grade carrageenan, which has a completely different chemical properties from the degraded variety has never been found to cause cancers in lab animals. So the decision is yours. Research and know what you are putting in your body.

Carrageenan is not a sweetener, it is an emulsifier. Carrageenan is actually a seaweed product and can be consumed safely but it is unlikely that most sources are safe because it is the processing which alters the substance. This makes carrageenan questionable as an additive.

Yes, my current bottle has carrageenan. As this is the only bottle of this product that I intend to ever get, I don't see it as a problem. I find that the product doesn't dissolve very well and it smells like vanilla candle not vanilla food.

sucralose-acesulefame potassium-carrageenan are the last item's on the ingredients list. If you go to the website, they state all ingredients, plus vitamins and minerals. when I use this product I feel rejuvenated, also I experienced new hair growth at my hairline.

Other ingredients are: Carrageenan (thickener), citric acid (pH stabilizer), potassium sorbate (mold inhibitor). All else is just aloe. No fragrance. :)

If there are artificial sweeteners, it is not disclosed on the label. It DOES list "sugars"...nothing specific. I did notice that nowhere on the label does it claim to be organic, if you are concerned about that.

I am glad you are questioning this product it did not tast very good first of all then I saw there was carrageenan in it!!! The things healthy people have to understand is how bad carrageenan is (cancer causing) and the manufacturers of "organic foods put this horrible thing in yogurts soy milk, almond milk...I can go on and on anyway I pitched the rest of the box when I thoroughly read the ingredients. Be aware of things like this!

The box lists starch, glycerin, carrageenan, water... As you know, there is vegan glycerin, but it doesn't say how it was derived.

" The label also states thus, " For more information, please visit us at www.lilyofthedesert.com "so perhaps at its website are more accurate answers ... ...

Per one scoop serving: 100 calories, 2g fat, 3g carbs, 18g protein. Carrageenan not listed in ingredients. This was from label of Vanillas Praline which is my favorite. Flavor is hidden when making fruit smoothies, but enough sweetness from flavor that no sweetener is needed. This is my favorite whey protein product and I have been adding a half scoop to my morning smoothies for a few years.
