Nutritional Summary
The product receives an 'AVERAGE' rating primarily due to its high added sugar content, with a single 180ml serving containing 9.54g of added sugar, which is 19% of the FSSAI's recommended daily allowance. It also contains a moderate amount of saturated fat. While it provides some protein from milk, its nutritional profile is that of a sugary beverage rather than a health drink.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, including Acidity Regulator (INS 339(ii)) and Stabilizers (INS 418, INS 407 - Carrageenan), are approved by FSSAI. While generally considered safe within permissible limits, some studies have raised concerns about the inflammatory potential of Carrageenan (INS 407), though it remains a permitted food additive in India.

Marketing Claims
The use of the term 'Milkshake' and the 'Horlicks' brand name, traditionally associated with nutritional supplements, may mislead consumers into perceiving the product as healthier than it is. The high added sugar content makes it more of a treat than a health drink, which could be clearer in its marketing.
