Yes — Huel Black Chocolate Ready To Drink by Huel is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because it contains several industrial ingredients and additives, including natural flavourings, sunflower lecithin (emulsifier), gellan gum (thickener), and refined/isolated components such as medium chain triglyceride powder and soluble vegetable fibre. These are characteristic of NOVA ultra-processed foods.
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.
