Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Farmhouse Seeded Loaf is ultra-processed.

The product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrial additives and processed ingredients, including emulsifiers (mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids; mono- and diacetyl tartaric acid esters of mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids), palm oil and palm fat (highly refined oils), and the preservative calcium propionate. These are characteristic of NOVA ultra-processed foods.
