    Coverage & match quality

    5 ratings · 1 of 4 axes

    • Some ratings rest on an automatic match that has not been human-reviewed.
    • Fewer raters reach smaller-brand products, so a missing rating is not a clean bill of health, only a gap.

    These describe what an ingredient is, not whether it is a problem. The stance marks above are the ratings; these are not.
