Allergen Information
Nutritional Summary
The product receives an 'AVERAGE' rating due to its very high sugar content (14.6g per 180ml serving), with a significant portion being added sugar (8.8g). This contributes heavily to empty calories. On the positive side, it is fortified with B-vitamins, calcium, and iron, and provides a moderate amount of protein. However, the high sugar level makes it a less-than-ideal choice for regular consumption, especially for children.

Additive Analysis
The product contains acidity regulators (INS 340(ii), 341(ii)), stabilizers (INS 412, 407), and a sweetener (INS 960). These additives are approved by FSSAI and are generally considered safe for consumption within prescribed limits. However, some studies have raised concerns about Carrageenan (407) regarding potential gut inflammation in sensitive individuals.

Marketing Claims
The marketing claims are technically compliant as the product is fortified with the mentioned nutrients and contains the listed ingredients. However, highlighting 'Indian Millet' when it only constitutes 1.4% of the product could be seen as over-emphasizing a minor ingredient. The 'Energy for Good' claim is a vague slogan, with the energy primarily coming from sugar.
