Calgon Power Gel 4-in-1

Breakdown

1 ingredient to avoid

Calgon Power Gel 4-in-1 scores 53/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Calgon Power Gel 4-in-1 lists 3 ingredients, starting with Polycarboxylates, Sodium Benzoate and Perfume. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 53/100 Calgon Power Gel 4-in-1 lands mid-scale — below the typical score in laundry detergent, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in laundry detergent is Molly's Suds Original Laundry Detergent Powder Peppermint at 100/100.
