While it is made from whole wheat (atta) and provides some fiber and protein, these benefits are overshadowed by the unhealthy levels of sodium and saturated fat, making it unsuitable for regular consumption.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Veggie-Loaded Atta Noodles
1. Sauté chopped carrots, bell peppers, and beans in 1 tsp of oil. 2. Prepare noodles as per package instructions, but use only half of the tastemaker sachet to reduce sodium. 3. Mix the cooked noodles with the sautéed vegetables. 4. Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot.
Health Benefits
Significantly increases the vegetable and vitamin content while cutting the sodium intake by half.
Atta Noodle and Chickpea Salad
1. Pressure cook a handful of chickpeas until soft. 2. Prepare the noodles in a separate pot as per instructions. 3. Drain the noodles and toss with the cooked chickpeas, chopped onion, tomato, and a squeeze of lemon juice. 4. Use only half the tastemaker as a seasoning for the salad.
Health Benefits
Creates a balanced meal by adding plant-based protein and fiber from chickpeas, making it more filling and nutritious.
Additive Analysis
The additives used, including thickeners (INS 508, 412), humectants (INS 451i, 452i), acidity regulators, and a flavour enhancer (INS 635), are permitted by FSSAI. However, the presence of multiple synthetic additives in a product marketed as 'Nutri-licious' is concerning. High consumption of processed foods with such additives is generally discouraged for long-term health.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'Made with Atta' and 'Source of protein, fiber and iron' are factually supported by the ingredient and nutrition information. However, the use of umbrella terms like 'Nutri-licious' and 'TRULY GOOD' is questionable and potentially misleading, as it creates a health halo around a product that is very high in sodium and saturated fat, which are significant health concerns.
