No — Hand Finished White Sourdough is not ultra-processed.

This sourdough bread is made from basic culinary ingredients: wheat flour enriched with minerals and B-vitamins, water, rapeseed oil, rice and rye flours, fermented wheat flour, and salt. These are all traditional baking components without industrial sweeteners, emulsifiers, flavor enhancers, or other cosmetic additives, so it does not fit the NOVA definition of an ultra-processed food.

What does "ultra-processed" (UPF) mean?

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.
