At a glance
Summary
This product is ultra-processed, which limits its potential score despite being a convenient source of dairy nutrition. The presence of soya lecithin as an emulsifier raises concerns due to its processing and potential allergenic properties. While it provides the benefits of milk powder, the processing level and use of additives prevent it from being rated higher.
Key ingredients 2
Whole milk powderNeutral
Whole milk powder is a concentrated form of milk that retains most of the nutrients found in fresh milk. It is processed through drying, which can slightly reduce some heat-sensitive nutrients. However, it remains a good source of protein and calcium.
Risks
Potential risks include lactose intolerance for sensitive individuals and a higher calorie content compared to skim milk powder.
Benefits
Provides essential nutrients such as calcium and protein, which are important for bone health and muscle maintenance.
Soya lecithinBad
Soya lecithin is used as an emulsifier to improve texture and mixability in food products. It is derived from soybeans, which may be genetically modified and can cause allergic reactions in some individuals. The processing of soy lecithin involves chemical solvents, which may raise health concerns.
Risks
May cause allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to soy and could contain trace amounts of chemical solvents used in processing.
Benefits
Helps improve the texture and consistency of food products, making them more palatable.
