Nutritional Summary
The product receives a 'POOR' rating primarily due to its extremely high sodium content, with a single 60g serving containing 804 mg, which is about 40% of the FSSAI's recommended daily intake. While it includes beneficial ingredients like millets and is low in trans fat, the high sodium, added sugar (4.56g per serving), and use of refined palm oil significantly compromise its nutritional value, making it unsuitable for regular consumption.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, Acidity Regulator (INS 296 - Malic Acid) and Antioxidant (INS 300 - Ascorbic Acid), are approved by FSSAI and generally considered safe for consumption. The product's claim of 'No added preservatives' is technically true as INS 300 is primarily an antioxidant, though it has preservative effects.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'Ready in 5 minutes' and 'No added preservatives' are accurate. However, the 'Goodness of Millets!' claim is exaggerated, as millets and quinoa constitute only 2.5% of the total ingredients. The claim 'Tasty & Healthy' is misleading; while taste is subjective, the term 'Healthy' is inappropriate for a product with extremely high sodium (40% of RDA per serve) and added sugars.
