The product is ultra-processed because the ingredients include industrially processed additives: dextrosa (an isolated refined sugar) and emulsifier lecithin (emulgente: lecitina de soja). According to NOVA, the presence of such industrial formulations makes the product UPF.
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.
