Question 1

Why does it say this product contains small magnets?

Accepted Answer

This has to be a mistake. Further down it says 3 CR2032 batteries required. I'm guessing this information is for another product that somehow got associated with this product. I have taken this many times and there are no magnets in the product

Question 2

Why are there iron oxides in this??

Accepted Answer

Physical Description
Iron oxides are naturally occurring pigments, ranging from black, yellow, red and brown in color. However, commercial forms are produced by synthesis. They impart pastel shades as opposed to some of the brighter and clean shades imparted by other colors.

Common Uses
Typical applications include pet foods, confectionery, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

EU Commission Regulation (EU) No 231/2012

Codex GSFA Provisions
Iron oxides (INS Nos. 172(i-iii)) are added to foods and beverages at concentrations up to maximum permitted levels (MPLs) as established by the Codex Alimentarius Commission and published in the General Standard of Food Additives (GSFA). The 32 provisions are defined at the additive group level, and thus apply to the total content of the additives participating in this group: Iron oxide, black (172(i)); Iron oxide, red (172(ii)); and Iron oxide, yellow (172 (iii)).
