This is a tricky question, we want
to believe that Natural flavors are simply Natural flavors but the truth be told there isn't much of a difference between
artificial flavors and natural flavors except in the way it is produced.
For example Amyl acetate provides the dominant role in Banana Flavor (artificial ingredient).
When it is distilled FROM bananas with a solvent, amyl acetate is a "Natural Ingredient".
A Natural flavor isn't necessarily more healthful than an artificial
one. Both Natural and Artificial flavors are manufactured at the same chemical plants, Mother Nature? I don't
think so!
So Buyer beware when shopping ....Natural
Flavors are also CHEMICALS and sometimes go through twice as much chemical processing than artificial flavors.
All those healthy vitamins that say Natural Flavors, aren't so natural!
Pick and choose your battles my friend!!!
