Why did Nootropics Depot add Maltodextrin to Vitamin D?

I happened to be poking around products today and noticed that it now lists Maltodextrin as an additive. Maltodextrin heavily triggers my crohns disease and I find it to be a nasty additive. I recently got Vitamin D and thankfully it appears to not have maltodextrin in it. The old formula seemed to be working just fine, why would they add it in now? I'm just so thankful i didn't accidentally start taking one with maltodextrin in it, it would've been an absolute nightmare trying to track down what is suddenly triggering my crohns. Looks like I can no longer purchase vit d from ND :( Hass maltodextrin been added to anything else now?

I didn't realize your were using microencapsulated D3. Is it mentioned anywhere? I just know your D3/K2 was working for me quite well while I was taking it but I couldn't tell why. I've tried other D3 with no noticeable effects on energy. Same wiith K2. So I assumed it has to do something with the K2 being actually there and not degraded unlike other products. Haven't tested Vitamin D levels in a while though.

It's on the label now, but perhaps we should make it more clear on the product page and title. I agree that it could be more clear.
