The verdict

COMPLETE PROTEIN SHAKE by Pure Protein scores 70/100 in PlainFoodSafe's ingredient screening. We compared its 40 labeled ingredients with FDA SAFFA regulatory records and CSPI Chemical Cuisine ratings; 2 ingredients are flagged for caution. The source parser split this into a very long 40-component record, beginning with Water, Protein Blend, Milk Protein Isolate. 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.

Screening model notes

How Nutri-Score, NOVA, and list length read this record

The composite for this product falls in the second band of the four-tier framework. That band collects labels whose registry-rated components pull the derived score down measurably without dominating it. Position inside a band is not visible from the band name, and two labels sharing it can differ in how many components were rated and how severely. This is a threshold on an index computed here from public data, not a regulatory classification of any kind; the exact cut-offs are published on the methodology page.

Nutri-Score is not defined for this product's category. The model excludes certain categories by design — among them plain waters, herbs, teas and coffees, and some single-ingredient products — rather than attempting a grade and failing. No nutritional band therefore accompanies the additive screen on this page, and its absence is a property of the category rather than a finding about this particular label. The registry screen below is unaffected by the exclusion and covers additive ratings as normal.

The declared list is among the longer ones in this catalogue. A component set this wide means the screen returns many individual ratings, and the composite accumulates a large number of small contributions instead of turning on a handful of entries. At this length the per-component table below is substantially more informative than the single figure, because the figure compresses a great deal of variation into one number.

How It Compares to Its Category

Among the 3,895 products we've scored in the Dietary supplements category, the average safety score is 93.5/100. COMPLETE PROTEIN SHAKE scores 23.5 points below that category average (70/100 vs. 93.5/100), so it is a comparatively weaker pick for shoppers screening within that category specifically, rather than against the product catalog as a whole.

Ingredient-list length is a descriptive property of the label, not a safety rating. A longer list is not automatically worse and a shorter one is not automatically better; the count is shown so the label can be placed against a comparable population. The comparison here runs against the 2,658 Dietary supplements products we publish with a parsed label, not against the whole catalogue, because list length varies far more between categories than within one.
