100% FRUIT
Summary
This product contains natural ingredients like red raspberries and fruit juice concentrates, which are beneficial for their vitamins and antioxidants. However, it is classified as ultra-processed due to the use of fruit juice concentrates and the presence of an additive, which limits its score despite the absence of harmful ingredients like artificial sweeteners or seed oils. The high sugar content from natural sources also contributes to a moderate penalty.
