Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Fruit Juice scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Corn-Based Sweeteners (High Fructose Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate And Potassium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Other Additives (Sodium Hexametaphosphate): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.
Within Juices, this product is more processed than about 93% of the 9,905 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
