They aren't specifically better for you. Kosher vitamins may have slightly different ingredients as some vitamin sources aren't kosher.

Which vitamins are kosher?

There are likely several companies that produce vitamins in accordance with kosher requirements - an internet search for "kosher vitamins" should bring it up. Please be aware that not all internet companies are legitimate - if you are interested in consuming these vitamins but only if they are truly kosher, I would strongly suggest correlating with your rabbi and synagogue to ensure the vitamins are kosher.

>What Are Kosher and KashrutThe production of vitamins requires the use of dozens of ingredients, if not more, many of which are made at various locations around the world under vastly different laws and jurisdictions. For this reason, determining whether certain vitamins are kosher can be very difficult. The easiest way to find kosher vitamins is to look for vitamins that have been certified as being completely kosher, although these can be rare depending on the area. There are some guidelines for what is considered a kosher vitamin, but they are frequently disputed by experts in the field, and there are numerous interpretations of the kosher laws.The largest problem with determining whether vitamins are kosher has to do with ingredients that are derived from animals. Since the method of slaughter and condition of the animals cannot be known, the ingredients that are derived from the animals are therefore not considered kosher. This includes some emulsifiers, stearates, and vitamins like D. Synthetic versions of these ingredients exist, as do forms that have been extracted from plant based sources. If a vitamin does not specifically state that it is kosher, or that it uses no animal based ingredients, then it is most likely not kosher.Even though vitamins are not kosher, there are exceptions under the kosher laws that can allow vitamins to be taken anyway. These laws state that exceptions to the kosher laws can be made for those who are sick and require medicine. This means that if a person is suffering from a vitamin deficiency or requires vitamins to cure a condition, then it is acceptable to take vitamins regardless of their kosher status. Some authorities have stated that taking non-kosher vitamins is acceptable if they are swallowed and not eaten since they would not then be a food product. The problem resurfaces, however, if the vitamins are in liquid form, since liquids must be consumed like food.In the event that kosher certified vitamins are unavailable and there is not a pressing medical condition, there is a good chance that vegan or vegetarian vitamins are actually kosher. One of the only vitamins that is not kosher and that has no synthetic counterpart is glucosamine and chondrotian, which is derived from shellfish that are strictly forbidden under kosher dietary laws.

Are raspberries kosher?

Yes, strawberries are definitely kosher, but you should wash them and cut off the stem to get rid of any bugs that may be on it (better safe then sorry). This is assuming, however, that they are fresh strawberries. If they are pre-cut, they should have Kosher certification.

Is kosher alcohol bad for you?

Kosher alcohol is no different chemically from non-kosher alcohol. Most beers and hard liquors are kosher by default. The only forms of alcohol that need to be specifically certified are wines, wine based liqueurs, or if such ingredients as cream and flavourings are added. Kosher alcohol would be no better... or worse... for you than any other alcohol.


Is kosher salt mined?

Kosher salt is exactly the same thing as any table salt the only difference is it bigger pieces. The only reason it's referred to as kosher is because in order to eat kosher meat the blood must be removed and it is usually done by a process of salting and bigger pieces of salt work better for it
