Lactobacillus Casei
Lactobacillus Casei appears in 129 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
Lactobacillus Casei appears in 129 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.
Lactobacillus Casei sits in the busiest tenth of the catalog (#2,620 / 247,206)
- Usage rank
- #2,620
- of 247,206 ingredients that appear in at least one catalogued product, tied with 18 others that also appear in exactly 129 products, listed in more products than 98.9% of them.
- Typical depth in an ingredient list
- 75%
- Averaged label depth puts Lactobacillus Casei near the end of the captured list (75% of list length, mean slot 15.5). Compound ingredients and OCR noise mean this cannot stand in for quantity.
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 to use this page
Use prevalence before concern
Only 16.3% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Lactobacillus Casei spans 53 named brands and is led by the Dairies group. Start with 0% Nonfat Greek Yogurt With Fruit; 2% Milkfat Blended Greek Yogurt; A2/A2 ORGANIC 100% GRASS-FED PROBIOTIC WHOLE KEFIR when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 98.4/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.
53 named brands carry this ingredient
The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 102 of 120 classified products, leaving a meaningful remainder elsewhere. This breadth is why the page reports label depth, category, and product examples separately. Those dimensions help locate comparable products; combining them into a stronger safety claim would hide the variation the catalog actually contains.
Next check: compare label position across two brands before treating prevalence as equivalent exposure.
What else is usually in the same product as Lactobacillus Casei
Across the 129 products on this site that list Lactobacillus Casei, 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 2.8x more often with Lactobacillus Casei than in the catalogue at large.
| Additive | Shared products | Share of Lactobacillus Casei products | Share of all products |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carrageenan | 16 | 12.4% | 4.5% |
| Monk fruit extract | 5 | 3.9% | 0.5% |
Co-occurrence describes what manufacturers formulate together. It is not a claim that these additives interact, and it carries no regulatory meaning. Counted over products with parsed ingredient lists; Open Food Facts, 2026-09-01.
