Non halal Vitahealth?

Last Saturday, I went to pharmacy in Petaling Jaya to look for multivitamin supplement since I have been tired lately. I asked one of the staffs for multivitamin. She suggested Vitahealth Supa Formula 3 Plus.



 I immediately bought the vitamin because I was in hurry.

That night, I read the description at the bottle. To my surprise, it stated gelatin: bovine. I immediately search at their website but they did not mention halal for this product although other products have. So I decided to ask Watson and Guardian pharmacy.





Watson staff told me that if you are not sure (was was) then don't buy. She did not even care to check. Then I go to guardian, the staff check for halal certification but there is none.

I have asked Vitahealth at their facebook page but no respond till now.

So I would recommend Muslim not to buy this product.

UPDATE: Vitahealth have updated me on the product. It is confirm halal. Below are the certification provide by Vitahealth. Thank you Vitahealth for fast response.
