Why it’s rated Avoid

A product’s rating follows its most concerning indexed ingredient. Each ingredient links to its science card and the research behind it. How ratings work

  • Blue 1 (Brilliant Blue FCF) Coal-Tar Synthetic Dye / Blood-Brain Barrier Penetration
    Avoid
  • Red 40 (Allura Red AC) Petroleum Synthetic Dye / Neuro-Behavioral Disruption
    Avoid
  • Potassium Sorbate Mild Food Preservative / DNA Irritation at High Dose
    Use Caution
  • Propylene Glycol Penetration enhancer; can irritate sensitive skin.
    Use Caution
  • Food Gums (Xanthan, Guar, Gellan) Generally safe; some people find gums irritate digestion. Limit, not avoid.
    Use Caution
  • Corn Syrup Refined syrup (HFCS itself remains Avoid).
    Use Caution
  • Flavor (Unspecified) Undisclosed blend — same practical allowance as natural flavours.
    Use Caution
  • Sugar (Added) Added sugar — limit, not avoid.
    Use Caution
  • Water Plain water — no concern.
    Clean
  • Salt Everyday seasoning; no toxic-burden concern at normal use (sodium intake is a nutrition question, not a toxin).
