No — Organic Coconut Sugar by The Groovy Food Company is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). Organic coconut sugar is a traditional sweetener made from coconut palm sap and is minimally processed. It does not contain industrial formulations or additives that would make it ultra-processed under the NOVA classification.
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.
