No — agave nectar by the groovy food company is not ultra-processed, so it is not a UPF (ultra-processed food). The only ingredient is agave nectar, which is a traditional natural sweetener similar to honey or maple syrup. It does not contain industrial additives, artificial sweeteners, refined industrial syrups, or other markers of ultra-processing under NOVA.
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.
