What we flagged
| Ingredient | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Sugar (Refined) | Caution | Refined sucrose, typically from sugarcane or sugar beet; minimally processed but a refined sweetener. |
| Glucose Syrup | Not approved | Industrial sugar syrup hydrolyzed from starch — almost always GMO corn or wheat in the US/EU food supply. Functionally similar to corn syrup; same metabolic concerns (rapid glycemic load, fructose-glucose imbalance) plus the GMO sourcing. |
| Vegetable Oil (unspecified) | Not approved | Generic label almost always refers to a blend of soybean, corn, or canola oil. |
| Soy Lecithin | Caution | Hexane-extracted from soybeans unless labeled non-GMO/organic. |
| Artificial Flavor | Not approved | Undisclosed synthetic flavoring compounds; no transparency about composition. |
