Health notes
Organic malt syrup blend is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily a source of carbohydrates and sugars. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar malt products. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical consumption levels.
