Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

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

Artificial Sweeteners (Sucralose): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gel, Cellulose Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
Other Additives (Sodium Hydroxide): 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.
