Why Does This Score Highly Processed?
In our analysis, Whey Protein Powder Drink Mix scores Highly Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Processed Dairy Ingredients (Whey Protein Isolate): Isolated proteins and modified ingredients indicate UPF.
- Processed Fruit Products (Cocoa Powder): Concentrates and extracts indicate significant processing.
- Natural Flavors (Natural Flavor): Despite being natural, these are highly processed extracts.
- Emulsifiers (Lecithin): Industrial emulsifiers indicate UPF.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Protein Shakes & Meal Replacements, this product is more processed than about 17% 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.
