Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Orange Drink Mix scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Colors (Yellow 5 Lake, Yellow 5, Red 40): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Gum Arabic, Xanthan Gum, Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Within Drink Mixes, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 4,985 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
