Vitamin / Mineral Interaction in Gummies Experiment. Magnesium Causing Dark Browning?

I am playing around with different vitamins and minerals in gummies and have noticed that the ones with Magnesium (Magnesium Bisglycinate Anhydrous Chelate Powder (~13% Mg)) are browning significantly and continue to do so as they are exposed to air for longer.

Could it be the interaction with open air that is causing this or the core ingredients inside of the gummy?

Vitamin/Mineral Names:

  • Magnesium Bisglycinate Anhydrous Chelate Powder (~13% Mg)
  • Vitamin C Ascorbic Acid Powder (Vitamin C (Ascorbate))
  • Ferrous (Iron II) Citrate (~20% Fe)

Core Gummy Ingredients:

  • Water
  • Glucose Syrup
  • Gelatin (Pork) 250 Bloom
  • Pectin (Will be removing this)
  • Granulated Sugar
  • Citric Acid
  • Fiber Syrup (tapioca)

As there are some pretty smart people in here, I wondered if any might know what is going on.

Is it the magnesium causing this, if so, how do I prevent it? Microencapsulation?

Order missing food, bank chargeback rejected even with my evidence.

Not sure what to do, my delivery was missing items, JustEat refused to help or refund missing items. I filed a chargeback request via bank with pictures as I was pretty upset about missing items and it has now been rejected.

Is this fair? I don't get how I can not receive items and lose out myself?

Shopify Payment Providers for Supplement Brands

I have heard horror stories of Shopify Payments (Stripe) suspending accounts and people losing subscription payments.

I would like to try and avoid those issues early on because I also hear users cannot be migrated to other payment providers.

I am based in the UK, but if needed can register a company in the states if needed.
