What these labels can't tell us

  • How much of each ingredient is in the product — labels list order, not amounts.
  • Cross-contact on the factory line beyond any "may contain" warning, and batch-to-batch variation.
  • Anything a laboratory test would find — Decode Label reads labels; it does not test products.

Concern match

A separate lens from the overall Safety Score above — how well each product suits a specific concern, not an overall verdict. Each concern is scored 0–10: higher means less of that concern (5 ≈ neutral).
