Summary
This almond milk is ultra-processed, which limits its score despite having beneficial ingredients like almonds and added vitamins. The inclusion of soy protein, which is often heavily processed and less complete in amino acids compared to animal proteins, also affects the rating. However, the product benefits from a relatively clean ingredient list with minimal additives and no harmful preservatives or artificial ingredients.
