White Tahini

About this product

This product carries a wellbeing score of 46%, indicating a moderately low nutritional profile for a food item, while its safety score of 88% suggests a generally low risk of adverse effects from typical consumption. It also holds a Nutri-Grade C rating.

Key supporting ingredients include sesame seeds, which provide healthy fats and protein, and lemon juice, which adds flavor and natural acidity. Xanthan gum helps maintain a smooth, stable texture, while citric acid acts as a preservative and pH balancer.

However, salt is a notable concern due to its high sodium content, which can contribute to cardiovascular issues if consumed in excess. Sesame is a major allergen, posing a risk for sensitive individuals. Additionally, the spice mix may carry trace residues like ethylene oxide and could contain undeclared allergens.

Overall, this white tahini offers a creamy, flavorful base, but its moderate wellbeing score and potential allergen and sodium concerns suggest it is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
