No — apple lemon and ginger juice is not ultra-processed.
The ingredients are fruit juices (apple, grape, lemon, ginger) plus ascorbic acid (vitamin C) as an antioxidant. Ascorbic acid is a basic nutrient additive, not an industrial flavoring, sweetener, or texturizer, so this would not be classified as ultra-processed under the given NOVA-based rules.

No — apple lemon and ginger juice by naturis is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredients are fruit juices (apple, grape, lemon, ginger) plus ascorbic acid (vitamin C) as an antioxidant. Ascorbic acid is a basic nutrient additive, not an industrial flavoring, sweetener, or texturizer, so this would not be classified as ultra-processed under the given NOVA-based rules.
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.
