Yes — Fruit-Flavoured Fizzy Drink is ultra-processed.
A fizzy fruit drink with industrial flavouring and colour additives.
This is a carbonated fruit drink containing natural flavouring and black carrot concentrate. Natural flavouring is an extracted or industrially formulated flavour additive, and black carrot concentrate is a pre-identified ultra-processed ingredient. These ingredients make the product ultra-processed under the specified NOVA criteria. Malic acid, chicory root inulin, grape juice concentrate, and lactic acid bacteria do not independently determine the classification.

Yes — Fruit-Flavoured Fizzy Drink is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). This is a carbonated fruit drink containing natural flavouring and black carrot concentrate. Natural flavouring is an extracted or industrially formulated flavour additive, and black carrot concentrate is a pre-identified ultra-processed ingredient. These ingredients make the product ultra-processed under the specified NOVA criteria. Malic acid, chicory root inulin, grape juice concentrate, and lactic acid bacteria do not independently determine the classification.
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.
