Nutritional Summary
The product is a good source of protein and is low in sugar. However, its health score is brought down by the very high content of sodium and saturated fat per serving. A single 20g slice contributes significantly to the daily recommended limit for these nutrients. The presence of preservatives and emulsifying salts also indicates it is a highly processed food.

Additive Analysis
The product contains emulsifying salts (INS 452, 339, 331) and Class II preservatives (Sorbic Acid - 200, Nisin - 234). These additives are approved by FSSAI for use in processed cheese and are generally considered safe within permissible limits. However, frequent consumption of foods with phosphate additives should be moderated.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'Pure Milk Cheese' is technically true as cheese is the primary ingredient, but it can be perceived as misleading. The product is a 'processed cheese' containing multiple additives like emulsifying salts and preservatives, which is not fully conveyed by the 'Pure Milk' claim, potentially suggesting a more natural product than it is.
