Why it's rated this way

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

  1. Sodium benzoateModerate concernPreservative; can form trace benzene (a carcinogen) when combined with ascorbic acid; implicated in child hyperactivity studies.
    What it is
    Its role isn't recorded in our data yet.
    Why it's flagged
    Preservative; can form trace benzene (a carcinogen) when combined with ascorbic acid; implicated in child hyperactivity studies.
    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 propionateMinor concernPropionate preservatives have been associated in limited studies with behavioural/irritability effects in children and with migraine in sensitive individuals; evidence is weak.
