Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, 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 Fruit Products (Cocoa Processed With Alkali): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Microcrystalline Cellulose, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
  • 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.
