Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Zero Sugar Drink Mix scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Sweeteners (Aspartame, Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40, Blue 1, Yellow 5, +1 more): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
Within Alcoholic Beverages, this product is more processed than about 68% of the 1,081 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
