What the data can answer

Blood appears in 3 catalogued products, but this snapshot has no FDA SAFFA status or CSPI Chemical Cuisine rating attached to it. This page therefore cannot answer whether the ingredient is safe from those sources. It can show how often it occurs, where it tends to sit on labels, and which kinds of products contain it.

How to use this page

Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood

This is a mixed product neighborhood: 1 of 3 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare Grass-Fed Beef Protein Complex; Grass-Fed Beef Protein Complex; Morcilla Blood Pudding to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 85–100 score range to Blood itself. The ingredient most often sits in the upper half of the list, and Dietary supplements supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.

1 of 3 linked records have some flagged component

All 3 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 85–100 score spread more informative than the average alone: investigate the low end, identify the actual flagged row, and compare it with a similar unflagged formulation before drawing a conclusion.

Next check: pair one flagged product with a similar unflagged product from the same shelf category.
