Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Protein Shakes scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:

Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
Processed Dairy Ingredients (Soy Protein Isolate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
Stabilizers & Gums (Gellan Gum, Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Other Additives (Sodium Selenite): Miscellaneous additives generally indicate processing.

Within Protein Shakes & Meal Replacements, this product is more processed than about 46% of the 2,287 products we've analyzed.

Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
