No — Kefir natural by The Collective is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Ingredients are essentially fermented milk with live cultures and no ultra-processed additives, refined industrial sugars, or industrial formulations. This is a minimally processed fermented dairy product, not an ultra-processed food.
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.
