Summary

This product is ultra-processed, which limits its potential score.

The presence of added sugars and the use of maltodextrin further contribute to its processing level, impacting its overall healthiness.

Key ingredients 7

Expeller pressed coconut oil
Good

Expeller pressed coconut oil is a source of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) which can be metabolized quickly for energy. The expeller pressing method retains more nutrients compared to refined oils. It is a healthier fat option compared to seed oils.

Risks

High in saturated fats, which may raise cholesterol levels if consumed in excess.

Benefits

Contains MCTs that may support energy levels and metabolic health.

Pumpkin spice blend
Good

Pumpkin spice blend includes spices like cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These spices can enhance flavor without adding calories. The blend is a natural way to add flavor and potential health benefits.

Benefits

Rich in antioxidants and may support digestive health and reduce inflammation.

Vanilla extract
Good

Beneficial ingredient — whole-food or functional value in this product class.

Benefits

Adds natural flavor without artificial additives.

Benefits

Soy lecithin
Bad
