Ingredients
Nutritional Summary
The product receives a 'POOR' rating primarily due to its extremely high sugar content. A single 150ml serving contains 22.65g of sugar, with 17.4g being added sugar, which constitutes a large portion of the FSSAI's recommended daily intake. While it is fortified with Vitamin C and is low in fat and sodium, its profile is more akin to a sugar-sweetened beverage than a healthy fruit juice, making it unsuitable for regular consumption.

Healthy Recipe Ideas
Healthy Mango Nectar Lassi
1. In a blender, combine 100ml of Real Mango Nectar and 150g of plain yogurt (dahi). 2. Add a pinch of cardamom powder and a few ice cubes. 3. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. 4. Pour into a glass and garnish with a fresh mint leaf before serving.
Health Benefits
This lassi adds protein and probiotics from yogurt, creating a more balanced and gut-friendly beverage.
Mango Nectar Chia Pudding
1. In a jar or bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of chia seeds with 150ml of Real Mango Nectar. 2. Stir thoroughly to ensure the seeds are well-distributed and not clumping. 3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until a thick pudding forms. 4. Top with fresh mango chunks or other fruits before serving.
Health Benefits
Incorporates significant dietary fiber and omega-3 fatty acids from chia seeds, slowing sugar absorption.
Mango Fruit Popsicles
1. Pour 100ml of Real Mango Nectar into an ice pop mold. 2. For added texture and nutrition, add small pieces of fresh fruits like mango, kiwi, or berries. 3. Insert popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 6 hours or until solid. 4. Run the mold under warm water for a few seconds to easily release the popsicle.
Health Benefits
Creates a portion-controlled frozen treat that is refreshing and lower in sugar than a full glass of nectar.
Additive Analysis
The additives used, including Acidity Regulator (INS 330), Stabilizer (INS 440), Antioxidant (INS 300), and Colour (INS 160a(iii)), are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by FSSAI and are permitted for use in fruit nectars. The overall risk from additives is low.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'No Added Preservatives' is technically compliant as it avoids Class II preservatives, but uses an antioxidant (INS 300) for stability. The slogan 'Real Fruit Power' is questionable as the product's high sugar content significantly outweighs the benefits of its 22% fruit pulp, potentially misleading consumers into perceiving it as a healthier option than it is. The 'Rich in Vitamin C' claim is accurate due to fortification.
