Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Energy Shake scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Corn-Based Sweeteners (Glucose): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
Processed Dairy Ingredients (Milk Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa (Processed With Alkali)): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
Other Additives (Taurine, Caffeine): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Soda, this product is more processed than about 64% of the 6,804 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
