vitamin E

So if vitamin E is in the ingredient list such as Kraft's Balsamic vinegar, does that mean it contains soy? I always react to that salad dressing without knowing why. I thought maybe with all the grape juice and sugar it was a fructose thing?

Soy is one of the top 8 allergens, so it should say on the label if it contains soy.

Thats what I thought. I know that vitamin E is typically made from soybeans so wondered about vitamin E in a food product

I believe there are quite a few members here who avoid it for that reason. I don't avoid vitamin E in foods, but I'm not soy intolerant, either, (according to Enterolab). I do avoid soy in general, though, since I consider it to be a contraindicated food ingredient, (for everyone, not just those who are intolerant of it), for many other reasons, not the least of which is it's adverse affects on hormonal balances.
