While it is low in fat and calories, the excessive sugar negates these benefits, making it an unhealthy choice for regular consumption.

Additive Analysis
The additives used (INS211, INS260, INS422, INS415) are approved by FSSAI and generally considered safe for consumption within permissible limits. The presence of a Class II preservative (INS211 - Sodium Benzoate) indicates the product is not 'all-natural' and relies on chemical preservation.

Marketing Claims
The 'ZERO FAT' claim, while technically close to accurate, is used as a 'health halo' to mislead consumers. It prominently highlights the absence of fat to create a healthy impression, while distracting from the fact that the product's primary components after water are sugar and salt. This can lead consumers to believe it's a healthy product without scrutinizing the high sugar content.
