Default corn starch in my supplements!

I picked up a calcium supplement today but before taking them (but after opening them) I noticed the 2nd ingredient was cornstarch! Is that a no-no?

I take GNC Calcium Complete pills, bottle says: "No Artificial Color, No Artificial Flavors, No Starch, No Sugar, No Preservatives, Sodium Free, No Wheat, No Gluten, No Corn, No Dairy, Yeast Free" Seems good to go.

Thats where I should have went "GNC" but figured they were more expensive than walmart and I was on a budget as always.

Default Re: corn starch in my supplements!

I've been taking supplements not knowing that corn starch was in them. I hope this is the explanation for my staff of weight loss cause I haven't been loosing aside from the 4lbs when I wasn't take them.

GNC has good vitamins (I take them), but you can find cheaper ones that do not have any carbs. You just have to look. I remember spending lots of time at the stores reading vitamin labels.
