- Pineapple fruit concentrate (4:1) (moderate) — Concentrated pineapple juice (the 4:1 marks a fourfold reduction) used to add fruit flavor and natural sweetness. It comes from real fruit but is essentially a concentrated sugar source.
- Bilberry fruit extract (100:1) (safe) — A concentrated extract of bilberry, a European relative of the blueberry, standardized at a 100:1 ratio and rich in anthocyanin antioxidants. Used in supplements for eye and circulatory support; a whole-fruit-derived ingredient with no meaningful safety concern at food doses.

- Grape seed extract (120:1) (safe) — A concentrated grape seed extract standardized at a 120:1 ratio, rich in proanthocyanidin antioxidants and used for cardiovascular and antioxidant support. A plant-derived ingredient considered safe at supplement doses.
- Wolf berry (safe) — Another name for goji berry, a whole dried fruit rich in antioxidants and vitamin A, used in superfood blends and teas. A wholesome fruit with no notable health concern in food amounts.
- GPC (moderate) — Likely alpha-GPC (glycerophosphocholine), a choline compound sold as a nootropic and source of dietary choline. Generally well tolerated at supplement doses, though not a whole-food ingredient.
- Green tea (Camellia sinensis) extract (leaf)(50%) (safe) — A standardized green tea leaf extract (50% active compounds) added for caffeine and antioxidant catechins like EGCG. Safe at typical doses, though very high concentrations of green tea extract have rarely been linked to liver stress.
- Licorice (4:1) root powder (caution) — A concentrated root powder from the licorice plant, used for sweet-earthy flavor and in wellness blends. Its compound glycyrrhizin can raise blood pressure and lower potassium in high or frequent doses, so it warrants caution in concentrated form.
- Yurba mate leaf extract (4:1) (safe) — A concentrated extract of yerba mate leaf, a caffeinated South American plant used for a natural energy and antioxidant boost. A plant-based ingredient; the caffeine content is the main thing sensitive people should note.

- Ginger yam (d.luma dulari) bark powder (moderate) — A powdered botanical (the name is garbled, likely a wild yam or ginger relative) used in greens-blend supplements for its purported adaptogenic or digestive support. Present in trace amounts and generally harmless, though the actual identity and evidence base are unclear.
- Kola whole plant powder (moderate) — Powdered whole kola plant, the caffeine-containing nut/plant traditionally used as a natural stimulant and bitter flavoring. Plant-based but a source of caffeine, so worth noting for sensitive users.
- Alkaline pea protein isolate (moderate) — Pea protein isolate processed under alkaline conditions, a refined plant protein extracted from yellow peas and valued for being allergen-friendly and complete-ish in amino acids. A processed but wholesome protein source.
- Chaka (Inonotus obliquus) extract (safe) — An extract of chaga (Inonotus obliquus), a birch-growing medicinal mushroom used in wellness blends for its antioxidant compounds. Traditionally consumed and safe at the small doses used here.

- Chick pea leaf (syzygium rubus) (moderate) — A garbled OCR entry pairing 'chick pea leaf' with an unrelated botanical name (Syzygium and Rubus are berry genera), so the true ingredient is unclear. Leafy greens and legume leaves are edible whole-plant foods used as greens or in superfood blends, with no notable health concern.
- Rhodiola rosea root dry isolate (safe) — A concentrated extract of Rhodiola rosea root, an adaptogenic herb used to support energy and stress resilience. Well-tolerated at supplement doses, though evidence for its benefits is modest.

- GABA (moderate) — Gamma-aminobutyric acid, an amino acid and calming neurotransmitter added to some supplements for claimed relaxation effects. Generally safe, though dietary GABA poorly crosses into the brain, so its benefits are debated.
- Milk thistle seed extract (70:1) (80% silymarin) (moderate) — A concentrated extract of milk thistle seed standardized to silymarin, an antioxidant flavonoid traditionally used to support liver health. A botanical supplement ingredient that is well tolerated for most people.
- EPA blend (safe) — A concentrated source of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), a long-chain omega-3 fatty acid typically from fish or algae oil, added for cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory benefits. A well-studied beneficial nutrient.
- RASN-Alpha (moderate) — An unidentifiable ingredient label, likely a garbled OCR fragment of a proprietary blend or compound code. Without a clear identity, no health claim can be made.
- Spirulina concentrate (safe) — A concentrated form of spirulina, a blue-green algae high in protein, iron, and antioxidants. A nutrient-dense whole-food ingredient common in greens powders.
- Withania somnifera root extract (moderate) — Ashwagandha root extract, an adaptogenic herb used in supplements for claimed stress and sleep support. Generally well tolerated, though it can interact with thyroid and sedative medications and is not advised in pregnancy.
- Beta glucans (safe) — A soluble fiber found in oats, barley, and yeast, used for its cholesterol-lowering and immune-support reputation. A beneficial, fiber-based ingredient.
- White peach essence (14:1) (moderate) — A concentrated white peach flavoring (the 14:1 notes a 14-fold concentration) used to add fruit aroma and taste. It is a flavor component rather than real fruit, but generally benign at the small amounts used.
- Hawthorn berry extract (safe) — An extract of hawthorn berry, an herb traditionally used to support heart and circulatory health. Derived from a whole fruit and safe at the small doses used in supplements.
- Wolf fish bean glucans (moderate) — An OCR-garbled term, most likely referring to beta-glucans, soluble fibers (from oats, barley, yeast, or mushrooms) used to support immunity and heart health. Read as a fiber supplement, it is benign, but the exact source here is unclear.
- Lemon ease (moderate) — An unclear ingredient name, most likely a garbled OCR fragment referencing lemon or a lemon-based flavoring. Presumed benign but not confidently identifiable.
- Connezyme Q-10 (safe) — A garbled label rendering of Coenzyme Q-10 (CoQ10, ubiquinone), an antioxidant compound the body uses in cellular energy production and often added to supplements. Well tolerated and considered safe.
- Bicatuacetera (moderate) — An unrecognizable term, most likely a garbled OCR fragment rather than a real ingredient name, so it cannot be reliably identified. No safety judgment can be made from the text as given.
- Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana) leaf (safe) — A zero-calorie sweetener from the leaf of the Stevia rebaudiana plant, hundreds of times sweeter than sugar and used to cut added sugar. Generally recognized as safe; the whole-leaf form is a natural plant extract with no established health harm.
