Tocopherol

Everything is a chemical structure, right? It is matter, it is made up of atoms, and all of those things have a different chemical formula, okay? So when it comes to your food ingredients, that's obviously true, right? And think of like any organic chemistry lab anywhere in any school, what we're mostly synthesizing in those labs is food ingredients to some degree.

So everything is a chemical, okay? So like if you see something like tocopherol on an ingredient label, That is vitamin E, okay? Tocopherol sounds like a chemical.

That sounds scary.

Yeah, vitamin E sounds like something I need, right? So it's naturally occurring, it is a food preservative, and it prevents fats from going rancid, right? So that's actually probably a good thing to have in something that you want to be shelf-stable, right? That's a natural way to preserve that food.

And one of the main-

... ingredients is this extract and green tea extract.

That is in everything.

On the website, it's water, pentylene glycol, glycerin, butylene glycol, and then green tea extract.

This one's completely different.

Tocopherol, lecithin, rhododendron extract, sorbitan isostearate, sunflower oil, sodium benzoate.

There's no water in it at all.
