1 not-approved ingredient detected
| Ingredient | Verdict | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Soybeans | Caution | Typically GMO unless organic; estrogenic compounds in large amounts. |
| Organic Cane Sugar | Not approved | Refined sucrose. Editorial position: drives chronic low-grade inflammation, dysregulates the gut microbiome, and contributes to weight gain at the dose found in everyday processed food. Yummylogy does not endorse cane sugar as an ingredient regardless of organic status. |
| Xanthan Gum | Caution | Microbial fermentation product; well tolerated by most but can cause GI distress in sensitive individuals. |
| Natural Flavor | Caution | Regulatory category that allows solvent extraction and undisclosed processing aids. Lack of transparency. |
| Sugar (Refined) | Caution | Refined sucrose, typically from sugarcane or sugar beet; minimally processed but a refined sweetener. |
| Dextrose | Caution | Refined glucose, typically from corn. |
| Maltodextrin | Caution | Highly processed starch derivative with a glycemic index higher than table sugar. |
