Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Galexy vegan hot choc is ultra-processed.

This vegan hot chocolate is ultra-processed because it contains multiple industrial ingredients and additives, including maltodextrin and dried glucose syrup (industrially refined sugars), emulsifier E472e, stabilisers such as E412, anti-caking agents (E551, E341), modified starch, and artificial sweetener E955 (sucralose). These additives and refined ingredients place it clearly in the ultra-processed NOVA category.

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

The classification is based on the NOVA system used by researchers and dietitians worldwide.
