Although it is probably true that allantoin can be found in plant sources, what they normally don't tell you is the COST of acquiring the allantoin from the plant material (grow, cultivate, harvest, extract, distill...etc.) is HUGE, and usually creates a very high priced raw material which few if any companies will buy. On the other hand, making it synthetically in the lab is usually low priced....and believe me, companies GO FOR LOW PRICED ingredients EVERY TIME.
So, chances are really, really good that the allantoin in most products (unless they are something like $300 and ounce) is usually synthetic.
