Health notes
Organic sugar is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA, and natural flavors are approved food additives. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend no amount of added sugars, and at most 10 grams per meal, due to concerns about excessive intake of added sugars. JECFA has evaluated sugars. Natural flavors are generally considered safe at typical intake levels, though JECFA and EFSA evaluate individual flavoring substances.
Allergen info
Neither organic sugar nor natural flavor are inherently major allergens. However, if a natural flavor is derived from a major allergen (e.g., milk, tree nuts), it must be declared separately on the food label.
