Yes — Prime Hydration Ice Pop is ultra-processed.
The product is ultra-processed because it contains several NOVA UPF ingredients and additives, including natural flavouring, artificial sweeteners (sucralose, acesulfame K), and mineral salt (dipotassium phosphate), all of which are industrially processed additives not used in traditional home cooking.

Yes — Prime Hydration Ice Pop by Prime, Prime Hydration is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is ultra-processed because it contains several NOVA UPF ingredients and additives, including natural flavouring, artificial sweeteners (sucralose, acesulfame K), and mineral salt (dipotassium phosphate), all of which are industrially processed additives not used in traditional home cooking.
Ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are industrial formulations made with ingredients and additives you wouldn't find in a home kitchen — such as emulsifiers, artificial flavourings, colourings and modified starches. The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
