- Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
- Modified Starches (Modified Corn Starch, Modified Food Starch): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
- Chemical Preservatives (Sodium Benzoate [Preservative]): Synthetic preservatives are UPF indicators.
- Emulsifiers (Soy Lecithin, Glycerine): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Agar, Guar Gum, Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
