Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:2 / 4

Processed Ingredients

Why this score?

Pure maple syrup is a single-ingredient product produced by concentrating and filtering sap (heating but no additives), so it's a processed culinary ingredient rather than an ultra-processed food.

Common Questions about Rich Amber Maple Syrup Jug, 8 FZ

Well, 'healthy' can be a bit subjective! This syrup is pure maple syrup, which means it’s a natural sweetener without any added sugars or preservatives. It’s great in moderation, especially when compared to processed sweeteners, but it’s definitely high in sugar, so it's best to enjoy it as a treat rather than a staple.
