Why do Mon*Vie Original and Mon*Vie Active contain the preservative polysorbate?
To create a blend of water-based fruits and essential fatty acids that tasted palatable, Mon*Vie considered a number of emulsifiers. The safest, by far, was polysorbate. Polysorbate has been thoroughly researched by the FDA and has been found to be nontoxic and safe at the amounts used in Mon*Vie Original and Mon*Vie Active. The Center for Science in the Public Interest (the “food police” for the USDA) awarded polysorbate their highest safety rating.
