Phytonutrient Based B-complex
Scores 100/100 on FDA SAFFA + CSPI ingredient analysis , with no flagged ingredients identified.
The verdict
Phytonutrient Based B-complex by PCC Community Markets scores 100/100 in PlainFoodSafe's ingredient screening. We compared its 44 labeled ingredients with FDA SAFFA regulatory records and CSPI Chemical Cuisine ratings; 0 ingredients are flagged for caution. The source parser split this into a very long 44-component record, beginning with Thiamine Mononitrate, Riboflavin, Niacinamide. That density can include amounts and label fragments, so verify the physical label before relying on ingredient order or completeness. This is not a recall, allergy, medical, or dietary-safety determination.

What the Data Says About Phytonutrient Based B-complex
Phytonutrient Based B-complex by PCC Community Markets carries a composite safety score of 100/100, which we classify as "Safe" on our four-tier shelf-label framework.
Of the 44 ingredients parsed from this label, 14 are covered by a regulator or watchdog we screen against (Kelp, Stearic Acid, Choline Bitartrate and 11 others), with 13 carrying an FDA Substances Added to Food (SAFFA) status and 3 a CSPI Chemical Cuisine rating. The remaining 30 ingredients appear in neither registry, so they neither raise nor lower the score. Each additive rated caution-or-worse penalizes the composite. Product data originates from the OpenFoodFacts collaborative catalog; safety annotations come from federal regulators and the Center for Science in the Public Interest. This score is a transparent derived index we compute from that public data, not an official FDA rating or endorsement; see the Methodology page for the exact weighting.
Our scan did not identify any ingredients in this product that FDA SAFFA or CSPI Chemical Cuisine data flags as requiring caution or avoidance at the time of analysis. That is a meaningful clean-label signal, though it does not account for personal allergens, regional recalls, or inspection findings not reflected in federal additive databases. The per-ingredient breakdown below shows the source-level classification for each component.
On the NOVA processing scale, Phytonutrient Based B-complex is classified as Group 4 (Ultra-processed). NOVA measures industrial processing intensity rather than ingredient-level safety, so it complements the SAFFA and CSPI ratings: a product can be clean on additive flags but heavily processed, or lightly processed but carry individually flagged ingredients. Combining both lenses gives a fuller picture than either alone.
