Rachel97 0 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 I have a medical condition that makes it so my body doesn't make calcium on it's own. I've been taking a form of calcium that contains soy and corn in it my whole life. I am on day two and didn't realize. I'm hoping I can switch without any issues since my body is sensitive. I found an alternative but I'm not sure if this last ingredient is ok. It's called Oligofructose Enriched Inulin. Ofcourse I will do whatever is advised by my doctor but I'm able to switch as long as it's the same dosage of calcium carbonate and vitamin D. Is this whole 30 approved?

Rebecca001 112 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 According to this, inulin is allowed - however I’m not sure about the oligofructose enriched. Is oligofructose if I recall a soluble fibre also? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators ShannonM816 5588 Posted March 22 Moderators Share Posted March 22 Oligofructose is a sweetener, and also is a subgroup of inulin. What I would say is, this is a calcium supplement, it's a caplet that you're not even going to taste, if this is the best option for you, it's probably not a big deal. That's my personal best guess here, because inulin is fine, but fructose in general is on the Sneaky Sugar list and oligofructose is a sweetener according to Google, and yet it also appears to be a type of inulin.
