Ingredients with an unresolved source

natural flavours

Natural flavours can come from plant or animal sources.

niacinamide‡

We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.

folic acid†c

We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.

Minerals

This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.

retinyl palmitate

The source or production method of retinyl palmitate can vary, so it is not always vegan.

riboflavin

Riboflavin can be produced by fermentation or other processes; the manufacturing source is not confirmed here.

vitamin d

Vitamin D may be D2 or animal-derived D3 unless the exact form and source are stated.

Nutrition + processing

Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

Source values per 100 g or 100 ml, as supplied by the record. Confirm the basis on the package; these are not per-serving values.

How our indicator is calculated

When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

What still needs to be confirmed?

The source of natural flavours, niacinamide‡, folic acid†c, Minerals, retinyl palmitate, riboflavin, vitamin d needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.
