What's inside

Soybean oil

PUFA-dominant oil with oxidative instability when heated, potential for formation of harmful oxidation products, associated with high omega-6 intake, typical processing may include hexane extraction, possible allergen for soy-sensitive individuals

Natural flavor

Lack of transparency, potential exposure to solvents or preservatives, ultra-processed nature, no direct nutritional value

Ethoxylated Mono- and Diglycerides

Ultra-processed, potential contaminants (including ethylene oxide or 1,4-dioxane residues), possible gut microbiome disruption, increased inflammation markers in some animal studies, insufficient long-term human safety data

Soy Lecithin

Hexane extraction residues, estrogenic effects, processing contaminants
