What it is
Natural flavors are complex mixtures of flavoring compounds derived from natural sources like fruits, vegetables, spices, herbs, or animal products. They are created through physical processes such as heating or fermentation, or enzymatic and microbial treatments. The exact composition is proprietary and varies by manufacturer.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use natural flavors to enhance or impart specific tastes and aromas in food products. They are found in a wide variety of processed foods, including snacks, beverages, baked goods, and savory dishes, to make them more appealing to consumers.
Health notes
In the U.S., natural flavors are regulated by the FDA and are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used as intended. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavorings, but specific evaluations for 'natural flavor' as a broad category are not typically detailed. At typical consumption levels, they are not associated with adverse health effects for most people. Some individuals may have sensitivities or allergies to specific components within a natural flavor blend.
Allergen info
Natural flavors are not a major allergen themselves, but they can sometimes be derived from or contain components of major allergens. Manufacturers are not required to list specific allergens unless they are a primary ingredient. Gluten is not typically associated with natural flavors unless derived from gluten-containing sources.
