Yoga Bar took the Healthy Snacking lead from The Whole Truth at 32% citation share this edition, with Gemini alone ranking The Whole Truth first at 42.9% share.

The move

Yoga Bar leads this edition at 32% citation share, gaining one rank position over The Whole Truth, which had held the lead in the previous edition at 34%.

The Whole Truth fell to second at 27.9%, a decline of 6.1 percentage points from the previous edition.

The engines split: ChatGPT ranked Yoga Bar first at 30.6% and Google AI Mode ranked Yoga Bar first at 32.7%, while Gemini ranked The Whole Truth first at 42.9%.

The biggest single-edition mover was The Whole Truth with a 6.1-percentage-point decline.

More than 75 new source domains entered the citation pool, including brand-owned domains such as theyogabar.com and true-elements.com alongside food and nutrition publications and multiple Reddit communities.

What it means

At 32% and 27.9%, neither Yoga Bar nor The Whole Truth holds a dominant share; this is a fragmented vertical where the top two brands together cover only about 60% of citation share, leaving Farmley, True Elements, Soulfull, and Happilo each holding measurable slices that matter for operators across the category.

Gemini's strong preference for The Whole Truth at 42.9%, compared to its rankings on ChatGPT and AI Mode, indicates that The Whole Truth's citation presence is disproportionately concentrated on Gemini, which is a structural vulnerability if that engine's query volume for food and health categories is lower than ChatGPT and AI Mode.

The Whole Truth's 6.1-percentage-point decline after leading the previous edition follows a common pattern of mean reversion for brands that spike to a category lead in a single edition, suggesting this was partly a prior-edition anomaly rather than a sustained structural loss.

The massive influx of new source domains, spanning millet brands, ketogenic communities, vegan publications, and institutional nutrition research, signals that AI engines are actively broadening the reference base for this category, which will likely compress individual brand shares further in coming editions.

Operators in this vertical should invest in citation-ready content across the expanding source pool rather than relying on existing dominant-source coverage alone.
