| Sugar (Refined) | Caution | Refined sucrose, typically from sugarcane or sugar beet; minimally processed but a refined sweetener. |
| Mono- and Diglycerides | Caution | Often contain trans fats below the 0.5g labeling threshold. |
| Potassium Sorbate | Caution | Generally regarded as safe but may cause skin reactions; one of the better-tolerated synthetic preservatives. |
| Soybeans | Caution | Typically GMO unless organic; estrogenic compounds in large amounts. |
| Sodium Benzoate | Caution | Can react with ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to form benzene, a Group 1 carcinogen. |
