Portfolio reading
Use the distribution, then open the outliers
With 120 tracked products, the useful signal is the shape of the portfolio rather than one headline score. The current concern-sorted list begins LEMONADE; Cranberry Flavored Water Beverage; Juicy peach sparkling water, juicy peach; 48.6% of records contain at least one flagged ingredient while the overall mean is 87.9/100. Open those outliers first, then compare neighboring formulations. The aggregate does not establish recall status, allergen suitability, or the composition of an item outside this snapshot.
Catalog evidence
Ingredient-list coverage comes before the score
Only 74 of 120 tracked PurAqua records (61.7%) include an ingredient list. The remaining 46 cannot be screened, so the 87.9/100 mean describes the labelled subset rather than the whole brand.
Next check: use the product rows below to verify the labelled subset, then compare the current package for any unscored item.

Sucralose is the flagged ingredient PurAqua uses most
Across the 74 PurAqua products scored here, Sucralose appears in 28. Only 1,692 other brands here use it (4.8%), which makes it a more particular choice than the flags that dominate the catalogue. A flag records that a named source raised a concern about an ingredient. It is not a finding that a product is unsafe to eat.
| Flagged ingredient | PurAqua products | Why it is flagged |
|---|---|---|
| Sucralose | 28 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Acesulfame Potassium | 23 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Aspartame | 7 | Concern recorded by a review body; no ban cited |
| Caramel Coloring | 2 | Restricted: California (Prop 65 warning for 4-MEI) |
| Titanium Dioxide | 1 | Restricted: EU (banned); California (under review) |
Counts are products in this database whose ingredient list names the flagged ingredient. Flags come from FDA enforcement actions, CSPI Chemical Cuisine ratings and US state ingredient laws; see the methodology for how each source is applied.
Visible product sample
Label complexity does not determine the screening result
Each point is one of the 50 concern-sorted PurAqua records shown below. Horizontal position is the number of resolved ingredients on that product's stored label; vertical position is its source-derived screening score. The dashed medians (15.5 ingredients and 85/100) divide this displayed sample only. A longer label is not automatically worse: open a specific product to inspect its flagged rows and source coverage.
