Why it's rated this way

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

  1. Calcium 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
    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.

    How sure we are
    High confidence. Matched by the additive code declared on the label.
  2. CarrageenanMinor concernDegraded carrageenan, and in some animal/in-vitro studies food-grade carrageenan, are linked to intestinal inflammation; human evidence is limited and contested.
