Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Protein Smart Vanilla Shake 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 Dairy Ingredients (Milk Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gel, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Other Additives (Sodium Ascorbate, Sodium Selenate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
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.
