Yes — Lift Bar Blueberry is ultra-processed.
The product is classified as UPF because it contains several ultra-processed ingredients and additives. Specifically: natural flavouring (listed twice) and preservative: calcium propionate are pre-identified UPF ingredients. In addition, the blueberry nuggets include blueberry juice concentrate (an industrially processed ingredient) and a gelling agent (pectin), and the product contains palm oil, which is a highly processed refined oil. These industrial formulations and additives place the product in the ultra-processed (NOVA 4) category.

Yes — Lift Bar Blueberry by Soreen is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The product is classified as UPF because it contains several ultra-processed ingredients and additives. Specifically: natural flavouring (listed twice) and preservative: calcium propionate are pre-identified UPF ingredients. In addition, the blueberry nuggets include blueberry juice concentrate (an industrially processed ingredient) and a gelling agent (pectin), and the product contains palm oil, which is a highly processed refined oil. These industrial formulations and additives place the product in the ultra-processed (NOVA 4) category.
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.
