This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

I guess it depends on if it is a case of there having had been 97 of 100 ingredients having been naturally derived and now only 91 of those ingredients are such. Which admittedly seems unlikely.
I mean it could be using the percentages of another number. Like if there's 20 ingredients and you drop one it's a 5% reduction or if you added other non natural ingredients that would cause the percentage to drop... But whether it's less or fewer would depend on information we don't readily have because we don't know if it's ingredients by volume or of it's a reformulation of ingredients... and may be at the crux of this grammatical problem depending on what you assume is going on?
