Flagged concerns
deproteinized whey
Endocrine disruptor; reproductive toxin; linked to low testosterone and sperm damage.
soybean oil
High in omega-6; promotes inflammation; usually GMO; highly processed; industrial seed oil.
cottonseed oils
Industrial seed oil; high omega-6; may carry pesticide residue; heavily refined.
artificial flavor
Catch-all for synthetic flavor chemicals; regulatory threshold does not address cumulative exposure
dextrose
Isolated glucose from corn or wheat starch; high glycemic; rapid insulin spike
food starch-modified
Ultra-processed starch derivative; very high glycemic index; may disrupt gut bacteria.
cellulose gum
Synthetic emulsifier; animal studies link it to microbiome disruption and inflammation.
Enriched flour
Stripped of nutrients; high glycemic; bleaching may leave chemical residue.
vegetable shortening
Highly refined fat blend; typically palm or soybean based; ultra-processed origin
polysorbate 60
Synthetic emulsifier; similar gut microbiome disruption concerns as polysorbate 80
