Summary

This pasta is moderately processed and contains pea protein isolate, which is a highly processed ingredient with lower bioavailability compared to animal proteins. While it provides a high protein and fiber content, the use of modified wheat starch and wheat protein isolate indicates a higher level of processing. The absence of artificial additives and seed oils is a positive aspect, but the processing level limits its score.
