Yeast Nutrients
Yeast Nutrients appears in 726 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
Yeast Nutrients appears in 726 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.
Reading this ingredient record
Separate this ingredient from its product neighborhood
This is a mixed product neighborhood: 163 of 726 records have some flagged component, while the rest do not. Compare 1/2 Loaf; 100% Stone Ground Wheat Bread; 100% Wheat Bread to see how surrounding formulations change; do not assign their 30–100 score range to Yeast Nutrients itself. The ingredient most often sits in the lower half of the list, and Plant-based foods and beverages supplies the most useful like-for-like starting point for a label review.
163 of 726 linked records have some flagged component
All 726 NOVA-classified records cluster most heavily in Group 4, while the first-category labels split across several shelves. That makes the 30–100 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.

- of 247,206 ingredients that appear in at least one catalogued product, tied with 3 others that also appear in exactly 726 products, listed in more products than 99.7% of them.
- Typical depth in an ingredient list
- 75%
- Averaged label depth puts Yeast Nutrients in the lower half of the list (75% of list length, mean slot 28.1). 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.
What else is usually in the same product as Yeast Nutrients
Across the 726 products on this site that list Yeast Nutrients, 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. Azodicarbonamide shows up about 66x more often with Yeast Nutrients than in the catalogue at large.
