Ingredients & minerals

Vegetable Oils (Including Esterified and Soybean)

High omega-6 fatty acid content, oxidative instability, processing residues (hexane extraction), potential endocrine disruption from soy components

Iron

Excessive intake may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, iron overload in susceptible individuals

Folic acid

Excessive intake may mask vitamin B12 deficiency, potential to promote progression of existing cancers at high doses

Arachidonic Acid [AA]

Supports pro-inflammatory eicosanoid production, excessive intake may contribute to inflammatory states

Disodium guanosine-5'-monophosphate

Potential for mild sensitivity or allergic reactions in rare cases, may contribute to excessive sodium intake if consumed in high amounts

Adenosine-5’-Monophosphate

Flavor enhancement, umami taste, minimal nutritional impact

Chloride

Supports electrolyte balance, acid-base homeostasis, and proper nerve and muscle function

Sodium

Essential electrolyte, supports nerve transmission, aids fluid balance

Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)

Supports brain and eye function, essential fatty acid, anti-inflammatory properties

L-Cysteine

Improves dough elasticity and mixing efficiency, reduces flour mixing time

L-Phenylalanine

Precursor to neurotransmitters, supports protein synthesis

Nucleotides (cytidine-5'-monophosphate)

Supports cellular growth, supports immune function, may improve intestinal development in infants

Disodium Uridine-5’-Monophosphate

Flavor enhancement, umami taste contribution

Disodium Inosine-5'-Monophosphate

Enhances umami flavor, reduces need for added salt
