Barcode 5070002247708
Not Ultra-Processed

No — Banana Oat Drink is not ultra-processed.

The product appears to be a simple banana-and-oat based drink with added minerals and vitamins. Ingredients are water, banana pulp, oats, a generic "refined" component (likely referring to oats), calcium carbonate, and vitamins (C, D2, B12). There are no industrial additives like emulsifiers, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners, flavorings, or industrial sugar syrups. Fortification with calcium carbonate and vitamins is not considered ultra-processing in this framework.

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

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.
