Why it's rated this way
4 additives on this label are on our additives-of-concern list.
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.
- 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.
CarrageenanMinor concernDegraded carrageenan, and in some animal/in-vitro studies food-grade carrageenan, are linked to intestinal inflammation; human evidence is limited and contested.
