  • Corn-Based Sweeteners (Corn Syrup): HFCS is a hallmark of ultra-processed foods.
  • Modified Fats (Hydrogenated Palm Kernel Oil): Hydrogenation and modification are UPF markers.
  • Modified Starches (Modified Food Starch (Corn)): Chemical modification is a hallmark of UPF.
  • Artificial Colors (Yellow 5, Blue 1, Red 40, +2 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
