- Xanthan gum · E415<0.1%No flag
- Potassium sorbate · E202<0.1%No flag
- Sodium benzoate · E211<0.1%Moderate
Preservative; can form trace benzene (a carcinogen) when combined with ascorbic acid; implicated in child hyperactivity studies.
- Calcium chloride · E509<0.1%No flag

- Mustard<0.1%No flag
- Xanthan gum · E415<0.1%No flag
- Guar gum · E412No flag
- Carrageenan · E407Low
Degraded carrageenan, and in some animal/in-vitro studies food-grade carrageenan, are linked to intestinal inflammation; human evidence is limited and contested.
- Sodium carboxymethylcellulose · E466Low
Synthetic emulsifier linked in animal and in-vitro studies to gut-microbiome disruption and intestinal inflammation; human evidence is emerging.
- Phosphoric acid · E338Low
Acidulant (colas); high total phosphate intake linked to bone-mineral and renal concerns in some studies.
- Titanium dioxide · E171High
Possible genotoxicity (DNA/chromosomal damage) could not be ruled out; no longer considered safe as a food additive.
- Potassium sorbate · E202No flag
- Sodium benzoate · E211Moderate
Preservative; can form trace benzene (a carcinogen) when combined with ascorbic acid; implicated in child hyperactivity studies.

Synthetic dye; allergic-type reactions reported in sensitive individuals.
- Yellow #5 · E102High
Southampton study link to hyperactivity/attention effects in children; can trigger reactions in sensitive individuals.
- Calcium phosphates (E341)Low
Inorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
- Diphosphates (E450)Low
Inorganic phosphate additives are highly bioavailable; high additive-phosphate intake is associated with increased cardiovascular and kidney burden, particularly in chronic kidney disease.
