Why Does This Score Ultra-Processed?
In our analysis, Soft Drink Mix scores Ultra-Processed. That classification is shaped by ingredients commonly associated with ultra-processed foods:
- Artificial Sweeteners (Aspartame*): Synthetic sweeteners are definitive UPF markers.
- Artificial Colors (Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 5 Lake): Synthetic colors are definitive UPF markers.
- Stabilizers & Gums (Xanthan Gum, Cellulose Gum): Industrial stabilizers common in UPF.
Within Drink Mixes, this product is more processed than about 51% of the 4,985 products we've analyzed.
Processing classification reflects ingredient and additive analysis, not a judgment of any product's safety, quality, or healthfulness.
