Ingredients
9 listed · 5 flagged · estimated by AI, check the label- Rapeseed Oil (Fat Base/Emulsified Oil)Caution
Delivers high caloric density from mostly unsaturated fats that can support heart health in moderation but promotes inflammation via high omega-6 levels and contributes to weight gain when overconsumed.
- Water (Solvent/Base)
Used to create proper emulsion and texture with zero calories or nutritional impact, posing no positive or negative effects on consumer health.
- Egg Yolk (Emulsifier/Nutrient Source)Caution
Supplies choline and fat-soluble vitamins for brain and eye health but is a major common allergen and adds dietary cholesterol which may concern those with heart risks.
- Distilled Vinegar (Acidifier/Flavor Enhancer)
Provides tangy flavor and mild antimicrobial effects with negligible nutritional contribution; may cause stomach irritation in sensitive individuals if consumed in excess.
- Sugar (Sweetener/Flavor Balancer)Caution
Contributes to added sugars increasing glycemic response, potential tooth decay, and unnecessary calorie intake even in small quantities present.
- Salt (Flavor Enhancer/Seasoning)Caution
Boosts overall taste but the sodium levels can raise blood pressure and cardiovascular strain with frequent use in typical diets already high in salt.
- Mustard (Flavoring/Spice)
Adds distinctive taste with minor potential antioxidant benefits from natural compounds; generally safe but can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive people.
- Xanthan Gum (Stabilizer/Thickener)
Maintains smooth texture and prevents separation; recognized as safe but may lead to mild digestive bloating or discomfort for those with sensitivities.
- Calcium Disodium EDTA (Preservative/Antioxidant)Caution
Prevents spoilage and oil oxidation but is a synthetic chelating agent with some debate on long-term effects and potential to bind essential minerals.
