Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?

In our analysis, Very Vanilla High Protein Balanced Nutritional 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.
  • Processed Dairy Ingredients (Milk Protein Concentrate, Milk Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Concentrate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
  • Stabilizers & Gums (Cellulose Gell And Gum, Carrageenan): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
  • Emulsifiers (Mono- And Diglycerides): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
  • Other Additives (Sodium Ascorbate, Sodium Hexametaphosphate, 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.
