Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Engineered Nutrition Meal Replacement scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Processed Meats (Gelatin): Mechanically separated and reformed meats are UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gum, Xanthan Gum, Guar Gum, +1 more): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
Within Protein Shakes & Meal Replacements, this product is more processed than about 46% of the 2,287 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
