Health Integrity Analysis

An independent health and safety review of Garlic & Herb Lentils. We check for banned additives, hidden sugars, and overall nutritional value. With a calculated health score of 70/100, here is the deep dive into what you are actually eating.

⚠️ Moderate Caution

While free from the most dangerous additives, we detected Soybean Oil. A ubiquitous vegetable oil high in Omega-6 fatty acids. Excessive consumption of Omega-6s without balancing Omega-3s can promote systemic inflammation in the body. It is generally safe in small amounts but worth noting for sensitive diets.

With only 3g of sugar, this product maintains a balanced profile. It avoids the excessive sweetness of typical processed foods while providing 23g of protein.

Keto & Diet Matchmaker

For those following a strict Keto diet, Garlic & Herb Lentils is highly problematic. A standard Keto diet restricts carbs to about 20g per day. Just 100g of this product contains 63g of carbohydrates, which instantly consumes roughly 315% of your entire daily allowance.

Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Garlic & Herb Lentils achieves a CakeID Score of 70/100.

Consume in Moderation: It's not a health hazard, but it shouldn't be a staple in your daily diet due to its processing level or nutritional density.
