Leaf Extract
Leaf Extract appears in 85 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
Leaf Extract appears in 85 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.
Leaf Extract: top-decile catalog footprint (#3,525 of 247,206)
- Usage rank
- #3,525
- of 247,206 ingredients that appear in at least one catalogued product, tied with 27 others that also appear in exactly 85 products, listed in more products than 98.6% of them.
- Typical depth in an ingredient list
- 63%
- Averaged label depth puts Leaf Extract in the lower half of the list (63% of list length, mean slot 22.7). 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.
Reading this ingredient record
Use prevalence before concern
Only 15.3% of linked products carry any separately flagged ingredient. The stronger differentiator here is market placement: Leaf Extract spans 50 named brands and is led by the Dietary supplements group. Start with AG1 Daily Foundational Nutrition; Baby Bottle Dishwashing Liquid; Black Seed Oil when comparing real formulations. Because the flagged component may be something else, neither the low co-occurrence rate nor the 95.6/100 product average proves this ingredient safe.
50 named brands carry this ingredient
The processing evidence is heterogeneous rather than a single shelf pattern: the largest NOVA group contains 70 of 73 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 Leaf Extract
Across the 85 products on this site that list Leaf Extract, 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.
| Additive | Shared products | Share of Leaf Extract products | Share of all products |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aloe vera | 6 | 7.1% | 0% |
| Sucralose | 5 | 5.9% | 2.7% |
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.
