chocolate liquor
🚫8/10
Chocolate liquor contains caffeine and theobromine which are stimulants and not safe for babies 0-6 months. It is unlikely to be appropriate in baby food or formula.
No Known Risk - Chocolate liquor is the pure paste of ground cocoa beans and, while it contains caffeine and theobromine, there is no strong evidence linking it to specific health risks in babies when used in small amounts in foods. However, chocolate products are generally not recommended for infants due to potential allergenicity and caffeine content, but chocolate liquor itself does not have a proven direct risk label from the provided list.
Confidence: HIGH

sea salt
🚨6/10
Sea salt contains sodium which is not recommended in high amounts for 0-6 month babies. It can strain immature kidneys and is generally avoided in infant foods.
No Known Risk - Sea salt is generally recognized as safe for consumption in appropriate amounts and does not have immediate health concerns for babies when used in moderation. There is no strong evidence linking sea salt to the listed risks when used as a food ingredient.
Confidence: HIGH
sugar
⚠️5/10
Added sugar is not recommended for babies under six months. It is not acutely toxic but can harm nutrition and encourage sweet preference and later health issues.
ADHD/ADD - High sugar intake has been linked in some studies to increased hyperactivity and attention issues in children, though evidence is mixed.
Organ Risk - Excessive sugar consumption is associated with increased risk of fatty liver disease and can stress the pancreas in children.
Long-Term Risk - Chronic high sugar intake in early life is linked to increased risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome later in life.
Metabolism - High sugar intake can negatively affect how the body processes nutrients and is linked to insulin resistance and metabolic disturbances.
Confidence: HIGH
cocoa butter
✅3/10
Organic fair-trade cocoa butter is generally safe as a fat source but may pose allergy risk or digestive issues in 0-6 month infants. Used as an emollient or fat in some foods.
No Known Risk - Cocoa butter is widely used in foods and topical products and is generally recognized as safe for consumption and skin contact, including for babies. There is no strong evidence linking cocoa butter to any of the listed risks when used as a consumable ingredient.
Confidence: HIGH
vanilla powder
✅3/10
Vanilla powder is generally safe in small amounts as a flavoring but may cause allergies or sensitivities in some infants. Used to enhance taste in baby foods.
No Known Risk - Vanilla powder, when derived from natural vanilla beans and used in typical food amounts, is not associated with any known health risks for babies based on current research. There is no evidence linking it to irritation, allergies, hormone disruption, cancer, or other listed risks. However, as with any food, rare allergies are possible, but vanilla itself is not a common allergen or risk factor.
Confidence: HIGH
soy lecithin
✅1/10
Soy lecithin is a common emulsifier in baby foods and formulas and is generally safe for infants 0-6 months with very low allergenic risk.
No Known Risk - Soy lecithin is widely used in foods and infant formulas, and current research does not show immediate health concerns or significant risks for babies when consumed in typical amounts.
