Reading this ingredient record

Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood

This is a mixed product neighborhood: 41 of 141 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare 100% juice; 100% Juice, Apple Grape; Ahold, simply enjoy, pomegranate lemonade - sparkling beverage to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 0–100 score range to Grape Skin Extract itself. The ingredient most often sits near the end of the captured list, and Plant-based foods and beverages supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.

41 of 141 linked records have some flagged component

All 140 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 0–100 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.
