Summary

This beverage is ultra-processed, which limits its score despite having beneficial ingredients like milled flaxseed and a vitamin blend. The presence of 'natural flavours' raises concerns due to its lack of transparency, and the use of multiple gums indicates a higher level of processing. However, the absence of harmful additives such as artificial sweeteners or seed oils helps maintain a moderate score.
