Summary
This raspberry fruit spread contains beneficial raspberries, which provide vitamins and antioxidants. However, it also includes a significant amount of refined sugar, which is highly processed and can contribute to metabolic issues. The presence of additives like pectin and xanthan gum, while common in fruit spreads, indicates a moderate level of processing, which limits the overall healthiness of the product.
