Help! Text doesn't fit in box and breaks unnecessarily

Question

I'm doing some packaging design and trying to fit ingredients list into limited space.

Please help me with how to get the text to not break when there is clearly space for the text to go, if it hyphenates.

I have changed the hyphenation settings which helps a little but I still get space left. (see picture, calcium is left with an empty space) Theres no right indent, the rag is off, I have turned on single line composer.

Not sure what else I can do? Help!!!

You may have to also manually insert discretionary hyphens where you actually want them to be. You can do this by placing your cursor at the indicated spot and then going through Type > Insert Special Character > Hyphens and Dashes > Discretionary Hyphen.
