Where the purine comes from

IngredientMatched GoutSafe foodPurine in that food, per 100 gShare of the productPurine at that share, per servingCounted in the worst case

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%. 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

  • The label lists one food, so the grade is GoutSafe's own grade for milk: A. Whole milk and 2% milk grade the same. Source on GoutSafe.
  • Under 1 mg of purine per serving, well under 1% of the 400 mg daily guide. Source on GoutSafe.
  • The Nutrition Facts panel lists 0 g of added sugar per serving.

The label lists one food, so this product takes GoutSafe's own grade for it.
