• Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
• Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
• Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Locust Bean Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
• Industrial Enzymes (Lactase Enzyme*): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
