No — Light in colour olive oil by Asda is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The ingredient list contains only refined olive oil and extra virgin olive oil. Basic vegetable oils, including olive oil, are considered minimally processed culinary ingredients under NOVA, not ultra-processed foods, and there are no additives, flavorings, or industrial sweeteners present.
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.
