  • Artificial Sweeteners (Neotame, Acesulfame K): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
  • Chemical Preservatives (Potassium Sorbate And Sodium Benzoate): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Pectin Powder, Gum Acacia): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Emulsifiers (Glycerol Ester Of Wood Rosin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.

Within Drink Mixes, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 4,985 products we've analyzed.
