first on the label · 6-protein matrix (WPC, calcium caseinate, hydrolyzed WPC, WPI, micellar casein, MPI), polydextrose, creamer (sunflower oil, corn syrup solids, mono-/diglycerides), cocoa, maltodextrin, full list read.
⚠artificial flavour'Artificial flavouring substances' on the label. Not dangerous at these doses, just a sign the food needs a costume.
⚠refined oil addedRefined soybean/sunflower/rice-bran oil padding the recipe, extra omega-6 calories you didn't order.
⚠emulsifiersINS 433/471-type emulsifiers keep the powder from clumping; early research links heavy daily intake to gut-lining irritation.
⚠thickener gumsGuar/xanthan/CMC/carrageenan, thickness that reads as 'richness'. Harmless for most, bloating for some.
The fine print
Sucralose: Zero-calorie artificial sweetener. Regulators rate it safe at normal intake; a 2023 lab study flagged a trace impurity (sucralose-6-acetate) as genotoxic in cells. Doses there were far above what a scoop delivers.
Acesulfame-K: Zero-calorie artificial sweetener, usually paired with sucralose to round off the aftertaste.
