SucraloseSweetener; emerging genotoxicity concern around the impurity/metabolite sucralose-6-acetate.
Potassium phosphatesInorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
Acesulfame KSweetener; broadly assessed safe but some consumer-avoidance and limited animal-study questions.
