Calcium Stearoyl

Calcium Stearoyl appears in 13 indexed US food products. No FDA SAFFA status or CSPI rating is attached in this snapshot, so this page reports prevalence rather than a safety verdict.

What the data can answer

Calcium Stearoyl appears in 13 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.

Catalog prevalence comes from Open Food Facts ingredient lists. FDA SAFFA and CSPI Chemical Cuisine labels are shown only when the source record contains them.

How to use this page

Audit the co-occurring flags first

53.8% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Calcium Stearoyl as the trigger. Open records such as 12 grain bread; Almond Rounds; Apple Rounds Cookies and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 91.9/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 57% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

53.8% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 12 of 13 NOVA-tagged records. That describes the surrounding products, not the substance. For a useful comparison, hold category and processing level constant, then inspect which named component changes alongside the caution flag; otherwise the product mix will confound the ingredient question.

Next check: open the lowest-scoring linked formulation and locate the exact caution-marked component.

Typical depth in an ingredient list
57%
Of the way down the captured list, averaged across the 13 products listing it (mean slot 25.5). Calcium Stearoyl usually falls in the lower half of the list; this position does not measure its amount because source formatting, compound ingredients and labeling exceptions vary.

Computed from parsed product ingredient lists (Open Food Facts). The ranking covers 247,206 ingredients that appear at least once. Neither usage rank nor label depth is a safety clearance.

How do the sampled products compare?

Each point is one of the 13 sampled products listed below: its overall safety score against how many separately flagged ingredients its label carries. Bubble size is the number of ingredient rows the label actually resolved to.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I read safety signals when Calcium Stearoyl sits in heavily flagged products?

53.8% of linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, so the first task is locating which row carries the caution marker — not assuming Calcium Stearoyl is the trigger. None of that replaces a product-, dose-, allergy-, or person-specific determination.

Which product shelves show up most often with Calcium Stearoyl?

Calcium Stearoyl ranks in the top decile by product count (#12,640 of 247,206), appearing in 13 indexed products led by Plant-based foods and beverages. The sample list below is a slice of that footprint, not the full universe.

Why is Calcium Stearoyl so common on ingredient lists?

The source record does not name a technical effect, yet Calcium Stearoyl appears in 13 products (#12,640 usage rank). High prevalence here describes formulation frequency, not an approved use level.
