Yes — Alpro Plant Protein is ultra-processed.
Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes additives and industrial formulations: “aromen” (flavourings), “stabilisator (gellan)” (gelling/stabilizing agent), and “säureregulator (kaliumphosphate)” (acidity regulator). These are extracted/industrial additives characteristic of UPFs under NOVA. The presence of basic ingredients like water, soybeans, sugar, cocoa, salt, calcium carbonate, and vitamins does not offset the use of these ultra-processed components.

Yes — Alpro Plant Protein by alpro is ultra-processed, so it counts as a UPF (ultra-processed food). Classified as ultra-processed because the ingredient list includes additives and industrial formulations: “aromen” (flavourings), “stabilisator (gellan)” (gelling/stabilizing agent), and “säureregulator (kaliumphosphate)” (acidity regulator). These are extracted/industrial additives characteristic of UPFs under NOVA. The presence of basic ingredients like water, soybeans, sugar, cocoa, salt, calcium carbonate, and vitamins does not offset the use of these ultra-processed components.
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.
