Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Strawberry Banana is ultra-processed.

Not a great choice for everyday; it contains several industrial additives and isolates.

This product is ultra-processed because it contains several industrially processed ingredients and additives: pea protein and faba bean protein, which are isolated protein ingredients; natural flavourings; medium-chain triglyceride powder from coconut; green tea extract; and steviol glycosides, including enzymatically produced steviol glycosides and steviol glycosides from stevia. The thickener gellan gum is also an extracted additive used in an industrial formulation. These ingredients go beyond basic culinary processing and contribute to its NOVA 4 classification.

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