Why it's rated this way

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

  1. Sodium 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

    Regulatory basis
    Greenveil's curated additives-of-concern list, which cites the authority behind each entry.
    How sure we are
    High confidence. Matched by the additive code declared on the label.
  2. Sodium phosphatesMinor 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

    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.
