Yes — GINGER TURMERIC LIVE SPARKLING SODA is ultra-processed.
The soda contains several ultra-processed components, specifically natural flavouring, ginger root extract, turmeric root extract, and black pepper extract. These are isolated, industrially processed extracts and flavoring agents, which place the beverage in the ultra-processed (NOVA 4) category, even though it also contains some minimally processed ingredients like tea, sugar, and cultures.

Yes — GINGER TURMERIC LIVE SPARKLING SODA by FIX8 is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). The soda contains several ultra-processed components, specifically natural flavouring, ginger root extract, turmeric root extract, and black pepper extract.

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.
