Why it's rated this way

4 additives on this label are on our additives-of-concern list.

  1. Calcium propionateMinor concernPropionate preservatives have been associated in limited studies with behavioural/irritability effects in children and with migraine in sensitive individuals; evidence is weak.
    What it is
    Its role isn't recorded in our data yet.
    Why it's flagged

    How sure we are
    High confidence. Matched by the additive code declared on the label.
  2. Phosphoric acidMinor concernAcidulant (colas); high total phosphate intake linked to bone-mineral and renal concerns in some studies.

    How sure we are
    High confidence. Matched by the additive code declared on the label.
  3. DiphosphatesMinor concernInorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
    What it is
    Its role isn't recorded in our data yet.
    Why it's flagged
    Inorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
