Nothing above the low band

Or no figures recorded at all

Three separate readings, kept apart on purpose. This is not a score, and none of it says this product is harmful.

This label lists 2 sweeteners, 1 acidity regulator, 1 anticaking agent and 1 thickener or gelling agent.

E950 Acesulfame K
Artificial sweetener
Low moderate evidence

What it is. A calorie free intense sweetener, often blended with other sweeteners to round out taste.

Why it is used. Used in diet drinks, dairy and confectionery.

What the evidence says. Long treated as safe by regulators. Some recent research on sweeteners and the gut microbiome is ongoing, but nothing has changed the official safety position.

Regulatory status UK Permitted EU Permitted US Permitted

Permitted with an acceptable daily intake in all three regions.

Assessed against EFSA, JECFA. Full entry for E950

E955 Sucralose
Artificial sweetener
Low moderate evidence

What it is. An intense sweetener made from sugar, around 600 times sweeter, so it is used in very small amounts.

Why it is used. Sweetens diet drinks, tabletop sweeteners, dairy and baked goods.

What the evidence says. Regulators have treated it as safe for decades and the acceptable daily intake has not changed. Newer laboratory work on a breakdown product, and the general question of sweeteners and the gut microbiome, keep it under discussion, but that work is early and has not moved any official position.

Names and jobs come from the register of additives permitted in Great Britain, which we have not finished transcribing: a code shown without a name is a gap in our coverage, not a finding that it is unapproved. Naming one is not grading it either. Full detail appears only where we have an assessment against a named authority, so all of this describes our coverage rather than these additives. Most are common and low concern.
