No — Date syrup by 1001 delights is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The single ingredient is date syrup (sirop de dattes), a traditional sweetener made from concentrated dates. It does not contain industrial additives, refined isolated sugars, or other markers of ultra-processing, so it is not classified as ultra-processed under NOVA.
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.
