Computed from named public guides — NOT independently scholar-ratified. For doubtful items, consult a scholar you trust. Halalyzer never invents a ruling and never uses AI for the verdict.

Riboflavin (B2): fermentation media may be animal-derived; source check warranted. Harmonized HALAL->MUSHBOOH to agree with the ingredient layer (en:e101) at the conservative status; a scanned label cannot disclose the media, so no lenient relief (matches the tested source_required convention). SANHA Halaal-listed at substance level. Aggregation, not scholar-ratified. reviewed_by_board=false.

Scan it yourself with Halalyzer. Point your camera at any barcode and get this same cited, AI-free verdict in seconds.
