Summary

This chicken breast product is ultra-processed, which limits its score despite being a source of protein. The presence of sodium phosphates, a synthetic additive used to retain moisture, indicates a higher level of processing. While it provides protein, the use of additives and processing detracts from its overall healthiness.
