Yes — Soup, Root Vegetable & Turmeric is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains yeast extract, which is a pre-identified UPF ingredient under the NOVA-based rules provided. Most other ingredients are basic culinary items (vegetables, spices, salt, cornflour, desiccated coconut), but the presence of yeast extract is sufficient to classify the whole product as UPF.

The product is classified as ultra-processed (UPF) because it contains yeast extract, which is a pre-identified UPF ingredient under the NOVA-based rules provided.

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.
