Summary

The Oikos Protein Shake contains high-quality protein sources like milk protein concentrate and micellar casein isolate, which are beneficial for muscle repair and growth. However, it is classified as ultra-processed due to the presence of additives like natural flavors and sunflower lecithin, which are used for flavor and texture but offer no nutritional benefits. The inclusion of high oleic sunflower oil, while not as detrimental as other seed oils, still contributes to its processing level, limiting its overall health score.
