Allergen Information
Nutritional Summary
The product scores poorly due to its extremely high added sugar content, with a single 180ml serving containing 20g of added sugar, which is 40% of the FSSAI's recommended daily allowance. While it is fortified with vitamins and calcium, the excessive sugar and moderate saturated fat levels make it an unhealthy choice for regular consumption.

Additive Analysis
The product contains several FSSAI-approved additives including emulsifiers (INS 471), stabilizers (INS 407, INS 412), and an acidity regulator (INS 339(ii)). These are generally considered safe within regulatory limits. The 'No Preservatives' claim is accurate based on the ingredient list.

Marketing Claims
The claims on the package are factually correct. However, they create a 'health halo' by focusing on positive attributes like vitamin fortification and absence of preservatives, while conveniently omitting the fact that the product is very high in added sugar. This can be misleading to consumers seeking a healthy beverage.
