Purine and sugar, by the numbers

Serving250 g
Purine per servingabout 26 mg, at most 63 mg (16% of the 400 mg daily guide)
Purine per 100 gat most 25 mg
Purine before GoutSafe's weightingat most 110 mg per serving
Main purine sourcedried yeast
Fructose per serving3 g
Added sugar per serving1 g
Total sugar per serving6 g

The weighted figure is lower than the one before weighting because GoutSafe counts purine from plants at a fraction of the same amount from meat or fish. The grade uses the weighted figure.

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
yeast dried yeast (D) 847 mg up to 2% 42 mg 42 mg
enriched flour bread flour (A) 26 mg up to 100% 65 mg 14 mg
soybean and/or canola oil dried soybeans (A) 33 mg up to 25% 21 mg 6 mg
cheeses american cheese (A) 7 mg up to 33% 6 mg under 1 mg
wheat flour bread flour (A) 26 mg up to 2% 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%. 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 C

  • Open Food Facts classes it as ultra-processed (NOVA 4), and GoutSafe's rule keeps ultra-processed foods at Moderate (C) or below. Source on GoutSafe.
  • About 26 mg of purine per serving, and at most 63 mg (16% of the 400 mg daily guide), mostly from yeast (dried). Source on GoutSafe.
  • The Nutrition Facts panel lists 1 g of added sugar per serving, about half of it fructose. Source on GoutSafe.

Estimated from the ingredient label. Labels list ingredients by weight but rarely give amounts, so we grade on the most purine the label allows, which can read stricter than the real recipe and never safer. Sugar comes from the Nutrition Facts panel. How we rate.
