Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate

Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate appears in 34 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

Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate appears in 34 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.

Reading this ingredient record

Audit the co-occurring flags first

64.7% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate as the trigger. Open records such as Chocolate Almond Raisin Bars, Chocolate Almond Raisin; Chocolate caramel cluster nutrition bars, chocolate caramel cluster; Chocolate Cupcake Kidz Nutrition Bars, Chocolate Cupcake and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 83.5/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 55% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.

64.7% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 34 of 34 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.

What else is usually in the same product as Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate

Across the 34 products on this site that list Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate, these flagged additives appear alongside it most often. The comparison column is how often each one appears across every product with a parsed ingredient list, so the two figures are measured over the same set. Carrageenan shows up about 11.1x more often with Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate than in the catalogue at large.

How do the sampled products compare?

Each point is one of the 16 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.

Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate — common follow-ups

How should I read safety signals when Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate sits in heavily flagged products?

64.7% of linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, so the first task is locating which row carries the caution marker — not assuming Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate is the trigger. None of that replaces a product-, dose-, allergy-, or person-specific determination.

Which product shelves show up most often with Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate?

Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate ranks in the top decile by product count (#6,452 of 247,206), appearing in 34 indexed products led by Beverages. The sample list below is a slice of that footprint, not the full universe.

Why is Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate so common on ingredient lists?

The source record does not name a technical effect, yet Di-alpha-tocopheryl Acetate appears in 34 products (#6,452 usage rank). High prevalence here describes formulation frequency, not an approved use level.
