Nutritional Summary
The product receives a 'POOR' rating primarily due to its extremely high sugar content, with sugar being the first ingredient. A single 20g serving contains 13.6g of sugar, which is over 25% of the recommended daily allowance for added sugar. It also contains the artificial color E122. While it is fortified with vitamins, the high sugar level significantly outweighs this benefit for regular consumption.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Yogurt and Jam Breakfast Parfait
In a glass, create layers of plain Greek yogurt, a small spoonful of Kissan jam, and a sprinkle of toasted oats and almonds. Repeat the layers for a visually appealing and balanced snack.
Health Benefits
This parfait balances the jam's sugar with protein from yogurt and fiber from oats, promoting satiety and slowing sugar absorption.
Whole Wheat Jam Pinwheels
Take a slice of whole wheat bread and flatten it with a rolling pin. Spread a very thin layer of jam, leaving the edges clean. Roll it up tightly and slice into 1-inch pinwheels.
Health Benefits
This recipe uses portion control and whole wheat bread to deliver a sweet treat with added fiber and managed sugar intake.
Additive Analysis
The product contains preservative E202 and artificial color E122. While these are permitted by FSSAI within specified limits, E122 (Carmoisine) can be a concern for individuals with sensitivities or for young children. Other additives like E330 (Acidity Regulator) and E440 (Thickener) are generally considered safe.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'With 100% Real Fruits' is questionable. While the product contains fruit pulp, this claim can mislead consumers into thinking it is a healthy, fruit-dominant product. In reality, sugar is the primary ingredient by weight, making the product a high-sugar food item. Focusing on vitamin fortification while downplaying the sugar content is a common but ethically dubious marketing tactic.
