Where the purine comes from
| Ingredient | Matched GoutSafe food | Purine in that food, per 100 g | Share of the product | Purine at that share, per serving | Counted in the worst case |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| cultured cream | fresh animal cream (A) | 0 mg | up to 100% | under 1 mg | under 1 mg |
Purine values come from each matched food's page on GoutSafe. Shares come from label order: US labels list ingredients by weight, so the second ingredient is at most half the product, and anything after "2% or less" is at most 2%. Plain yeast and hops count at no more than 2% and yeast extract at no more than 5% wherever they sit, since recipes use them in small amounts. The worst case fills the most purine-dense ingredients to their full share first, until the shares reach the whole product, then applies GoutSafe's weighting by source, which counts plant purines at 0.3, dairy at 0 and organ meat at 1.3 because they raise uric acid by different amounts. The grade uses that worst case. How we rate.
Why it's rated A
- Its one food is fresh animal cream, and the rest of the label (enzymes) adds no purine or fructose we count, so the grade is GoutSafe's own grade for fresh animal cream: A. Source on GoutSafe.
- Under 1 mg of purine per serving, well under 1% of the 400 mg daily guide. Source on GoutSafe.
- The panel lists 1 g of total sugars per serving and no added-sugar line.
Only one food on the label counts for purine or fructose, so this product takes GoutSafe's own grade for it.
