Nutritional Summary
The product receives a very poor rating due to its extremely high sugar content, with a single 250ml serving containing 27.5g of sugar, which is over 50% of the FSSAI's recommended daily allowance for added sugar. The high caffeine content (75mg per serving) also poses health risks and makes it unsuitable for a wide audience. These significant negative factors heavily outweigh the benefit of B-vitamin fortification.

Additive Analysis
The additives used, such as Caramel colour, Citric Acid, and acidity regulators, are permitted under FSSAI regulations and generally considered safe within prescribed limits. The primary health concerns stem from the high sugar and caffeine content, not the additives themselves.

Marketing Claims
The claim 'Vitalizes body and mind' is a functional claim that can be considered questionable. While the combination of sugar and caffeine does provide a temporary stimulant effect, the claim oversimplifies the product's impact, omitting the negative health consequences of high sugar consumption and the potential for an energy 'crash'. It frames the product as a purely positive enhancer without acknowledging the downsides, which could mislead consumers about its overall health impact.
