91.5% of linked products contain a separately flagged ingredient

Processing is unusually concentrated here: Group 4 accounts for 82 of 82 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.
