Turmeric Mushroom Latte

Barcode 754590387361
Ultra-Processed Food (UPF)

Yes — Turmeric Mushroom Latte is ultra-processed.

Classified as UPF because it contains tapioca maltodextrin, an industrially processed refined carbohydrate used as a carrier and texturizer. Other ingredients (coconut milk powder, turmeric, lion’s mane mushroom extract, lucuma, cinnamon, ashwagandha) are not UPF on their own, but the presence of maltodextrin makes the overall product ultra-processed under NOVA.
