What it is

Natural flavors are complex mixtures derived from natural sources like plants or animals. They are created through physical, enzymatic, or microbiological processes and are used to impart specific tastes and aromas to foods. The exact composition is proprietary and varies by manufacturer.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use natural flavors to enhance or add taste and aroma to a wide variety of food products. They are common in beverages, baked goods, snacks, and dairy products, aiming to replicate or create desirable flavor profiles.

Health notes

The FDA considers natural flavors to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used as intended. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavorings, but specific evaluations for 'natural flavors' as a broad category are complex due to their varied compositions. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from natural flavors at typical consumption levels.

Allergen info

Natural flavors are not derived from one of the nine FDA major allergens unless specifically stated on the label. They do not contain gluten.
