Those ingredients are natural. Nothing “bad”, unless you’re supposed to avoid sugar.
Despite its rather alien-sounding name, xanthan gum is as natural as any other fermented corn sugar polysaccharide you can name.
Seriously, xanthan gum derives its name from the strain of bacteria used during the fermentation process, Xanthomonas campestris. Xanthomonas campestris is the same bacteria responsible for causing black rot to form on broccoli, cauliflower and other leafy vegetables. The bacteria form a slimy substance which acts as a natural stabilizer or thickener. The United States Department of Agriculture ran a number of experiments involving bacteria and various sugars to develop a new thickening agent similar to corn starch or guar gum. When Xanthomonas campestris was combined with corn sugar, the result was a colorless slime called xanthan gum.
so, no, not really bad for ya
