Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate And Potassium Sorbate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Natural Flavors (Flavor (Water, Concentrated Sponge Extract)): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Emulsifiers (Datem, Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Industrial Enzymes (Enzymes (Sodium Chloride, Wheat Starch, Enzymes, Maltodextrin)): Industrial enzyme use indicates significant processing.
