Reading this ingredient record
Audit the co-occurring flags first
100% of the linked products contain at least one separately flagged ingredient, making co-occurrence the dominant follow-up question. That figure does not identify Dibutyl Sebacate as the trigger. Open records such as Lean Shake Burn Chocolate Mocha and inspect which ingredient row carries the caution marker. The 70.0/100 product average is therefore a triage signal for this surrounding formulation set, not an ingredient verdict. Its 24% average label depth helps locate the term when checking the package.
100% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient
Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 1 of 1 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.

Where does Dibutyl Sebacate show up across the catalog? ▼
Dibutyl Sebacate sits above the median for catalog prevalence (1 products, #71,300 of 247,206) across 1 named brands. Category mix varies — use the linked records rather than treating any single shelf as representative.
What function does Dibutyl Sebacate serve when it appears beside other flagged additives? ▼
Dibutyl Sebacate is recorded as a flavoring agent or adjuvant in source technical-effect fields. In high co-flag products, that function coexists with other caution-marked components — inspect the full list rather than isolating this role.
