Nutritional Summary
The product is rated 'POOR' primarily due to its extremely high sodium content (840mg per serving, which is 42% of the daily recommended intake) and very high saturated fat (7g per serving, 32% of daily intake). Although it is made with whole wheat flour and has good fiber content, the excessive levels of unhealthy fats and sodium, combined with the presence of MSG, make it an unhealthy choice for regular consumption.

Veggie-Loaded Atta Noodles
1. Sauté 1 cup of chopped vegetables (carrots, bell peppers, peas) in 1 tsp oil. 2. Add 250ml of water and bring to a boil. 3. Add the noodle cake and only HALF of the seasoning sachet. 4. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, and serve hot.
Health Benefits
Reduces sodium intake by half while increasing vitamins and fiber from fresh vegetables.
Protein-Boosted Noodle Stir-fry
1. Boil the noodles without seasoning and set aside. 2. In a pan, scramble one egg or 50g of paneer. 3. Add the boiled noodles, a handful of spinach, and a quarter of the seasoning packet. 4. Stir-fry for 2 minutes and serve immediately.
Health Benefits
Creates a more balanced meal by adding high-quality protein and essential nutrients from egg or paneer.
Additive Analysis
The product contains multiple FSSAI-permitted additives, including flavour enhancers (MSG - E621) and antioxidants (E220). While generally safe within limits, the high number of additives and the presence of MSG (which requires a warning for infants) and Sulphur Dioxide (a potential concern for asthmatics) suggest that consumption should be moderate.

Marketing Claims
The primary claim 'Atta Noodles' is factually correct as the main ingredient is whole wheat flour. However, this creates a 'health halo' that can be misleading, as it distracts from the product's extremely high sodium and saturated fat content. While not technically false, the marketing implies a level of healthiness that the overall nutritional profile does not support.
