What's inside

Soy Lecithin

Potential for estrogenic effects due to isoflavone residues, hexane solvent residues from processing, allergenicity in soy-sensitive individuals, ultra-processed ingredient

Folic acid

Excessive intake may mask vitamin B12 deficiency, potential unmetabolized folic acid accumulation

Soybean oil

High omega-6 fatty acid content associated with oxidative instability, potential endocrine effects from isoflavones contaminants, hexane extraction residues possible

Corn syrup

Excessive intake associated with insulin resistance, weight gain, metabolic dysfunction

Soy Flour

Processing byproducts, potential allergenicity, moderate endocrine effects due to isoflavones, possible hexane extraction residues

Calcium Peroxide

Irritation and sensitization risk on skin and eyes, potential respiratory irritation from dust, oxidation instability, contamination risk from impurities

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

Monoglycerides And Diglycerides

May contain trans fats if derived from partially hydrogenated oils, possible allergen contamination from source oils, ultra-processed ingredient

Yeast Nutrient (Ammonium Sulfate)

High intake may cause gastrointestinal irritation, potential imbalance of dietary minerals if consumed excessively

High fructose

Insulin resistance, increased risk of obesity and metabolic disorders, excessive caloric intake

Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate

Improves texture and stability of food emulsions, extends shelf life

Monocalcium phosphate

Leavening agent, acidity regulator, source of dietary calcium and phosphorus

Wheat Flour

Provides carbohydrate energy, source of dietary fiber and some vitamins/minerals in whole grain form

Niacin

Supports energy metabolism, DNA repair, skin health, and nervous system function

Reduced Iron

No peer-reviewed information found for 'REDUCED RON' as a food or material ingredient. Possibly a non-standard or proprietary term without documented safety or use data.

Riboflavin

Essential nutrient, supports energy metabolism

Calcium Sulfate

Used as firming agent and coagulant in food production

Wheat Gluten

Enhances texture and elasticity in baked goods, adds protein content

Enzymes

Enhance processing efficiency, improve product texture and shelf-life, reduce energy use in manufacturing

Calcium Stearoyl Lactylate

Improves dough strength and gas retention, enhances texture and shelf life of baked goods

Calcium Iodate

Provides dietary iodine essential for thyroid hormone synthesis and normal metabolic function

Malted Barley Flour

Provides enzymatic activity beneficial in baking and flavor development

Thiamin Mononitrate

Prevents thiamin deficiency, supports energy metabolism, essential nutrient

DATEM

Improves dough strength and texture, stabilizes emulsions in food products

Water

Hydration, solvent for biochemical reactions, essential for life

Salt

Essential electrolyte, supports nerve transmission, aids fluid balance

2% or less of yeast

Flavor development, fermentation support, improves texture

Calcium propionate (to retard spoilage)

Prevents microbial spoilage, extends shelf life
