Why it's used

Health notes
Natural strawberry extract is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a flavoring. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavoring substances, and natural extracts are typically considered safe at levels used in food. There is no widespread scientific controversy regarding the health effects of natural strawberry extract when consumed in typical amounts.
