Ingredients & minerals

Soy protein isolate

Hexane extraction residues, potential endocrine disruption due to isoflavones, allergenicity, ultra-processed

Canola Oil

PUFA oxidation instability, potential processing contaminants in refined oil

Corn oil

High omega-6 fatty acids, oxidative instability, excessive intake associated with weight gain, potential processing residues

Sucralose

Possible gut microbiota alterations, potential digestive discomfort at high doses, heat instability leading to breakdown products

Ferrous sulfate

Gastrointestinal irritation, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, risk of iron overdose especially in children

Copper Sulfate

Potential toxicity at high doses, gastrointestinal irritation, liver and kidney damage with chronic exposure, not recommended for direct human supplementation without medical oversight

Folic acid

Potential masking of vitamin B12 deficiency at high doses, possible excessive intake concerns
