Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Ibc, Root Beer scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
Within Soda, this product is more processed than about 30% 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.
