Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — preztel is ultra-processed.

The ingredient list is valid. The product is classified as ultra-processed because it contains dextrose, which is an industrially refined sugar and explicitly considered a UPF ingredient in the NOVA framework used here. Other ingredients like fortified wheat flour, rapeseed oil, sea salt, and basic acidity regulators/yeast are not UPF on their own, but the presence of dextrose is sufficient to classify the whole product as UPF.
