Piraeus Tzfatit 5% Fat

About this product

This product carries a wellbeing score of 46%, which sits slightly below the neutral 50% threshold, indicating a modestly negative impact on overall wellbeing for a food of this type. Its safety score is considerably higher at 87%, suggesting a generally low risk of immediate harm from typical consumption.

Cow's milk and Milk Components form the core of this dairy product, supplying protein, fat, and calcium that contribute to its nutritional value and creamy texture. Salt enhances flavor and acts as a traditional preservative, while Preservative (E-202) helps maintain freshness and extend shelf life, supporting the product's role as a consumable food.

Salt is a primary concern due to its high sodium content, which can contribute to high blood pressure with excessive intake, and it poses a medium risk of toxicity at overdose levels. Cow's milk is a major allergen and can also trigger issues for those with lactose intolerance, though these are specific to sensitive individuals. Preservative (E-202) carries only low-level concerns, such as rare hypersensitivity or mild irritation at high concentrations.

Overall, this product offers a reasonable safety profile but a slightly below-neutral wellbeing score, largely driven by its sodium content and dairy-related sensitivities, making it a moderate choice for regular consumption.
