Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Sparkling Water Beverage scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Benzoate And Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor, Green Tea): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Water, this product is more processed than about 93% of the 7,149 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
