Batyl Alcohol and the Vegetarian Diet

Batyl alcohol is a type of long-chain fatty alcohol, frequently sourced from marine animals such as sharks or from liver oil. However, it can also be derived from plant-based sources, making it a suitable ingredient for vegetarians if the source is specified as plant-based. It is primarily used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries for its emulsifying properties.
