Ingredient Decoder

Moderate Caution

Erythritol

A popular sugar alcohol. While generally keto-friendly, recent 2023 studies have associated high blood levels of erythritol with an increased risk of blood clotting and stroke.

Caramel Color

The brown color in colas. Class III and IV caramel coloring contain 4-MEI, a chemical byproduct that is a possible human carcinogen.

Inulin (Chicory Root)

A prebiotic fiber added to 'healthy' snacks. While natural, processed inulin can cause severe gas and digestive distress in sensitive individuals.

Soy Protein Isolate

A highly processed protein. The extraction process often uses hexane (a neurotoxin). It also contains high levels of phytoestrogens.

Sunflower Oil

Often perceived as healthy, but high-oleic versions are better. Standard sunflower oil is very high in inflammatory Omega-6s.

almonds, soy protein isolate, erythritol, corn meal, whole grain corn, maple syrup, corn bran, sugar, canola and/or sunflower oil, modified corn starch, coconut oil, whey protein isolate, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, salt, inulin, cinnamon, caramel color, sea salt, baking soda, stevia extract, natural flavor, vanilla extract, almond extract. vitamin e (mixed tocopherols) added to preserve freshness. vitamins and minerals: calcium carbonate, vitamin c (sodium ascorbate), iron and zinc (mineral nutrients), a b vitamin (niacinamide), vitamin b6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride), vitamin b₁ (thiamin mononitrate), vitamin a (palmitate), vitamin b₂ (riboflavin), a b vitamin (folic acid), vitamin b₁2, vitamin d3. contains almonds, milk and soy
