Also Contains
Seed Oils
- High Oleic Sunflower Oil
A seed oil from varieties bred so most of the fat is monounsaturated oleic acid, the same fat that dominates olive oil, with far less of the omega-6 linoleic acid that standard versions carry. The FDA allows a qualified health claim that replacing saturated fat with high oleic oils may reduce coronary heart disease risk. The high oleic profile also makes the oil much more stable against oxidation.

Sugar Alcohols
- Vegetable Glycerin
Chemically a sugar alcohol, used to keep bars soft and moist rather than to sweeten. The EU safety authority found no safety concern at food levels. Large amounts can draw water into the gut and have a laxative effect.
EFSA re-evaluation of glycerol E422 (2017)
Stimulants
- Caffeine
A stimulant, and ingredient lists rarely state the amount. The EU safety authority puts single doses of no concern at 200mg and habitual daily intake at 400mg for healthy adults, lower in pregnancy.
