Why is High protein milk drink classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product undergoes extensive processing such as UHT treatment, the addition of isolated milk protein, fortified mineral salts and the lactase enzyme, and it is packaged in a multi‑layer Tetra Pak, all of which meet the criteria for a NOVA 4 food; it does not list any commercial additives, only the functional ingredients themselves.

How does the sugar and salt content in this high‑protein milk drink affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 2.5 g of sugars and 0.08 g of salt per 100 ml, the drink adds a modest amount of carbohydrates that diabetics need to count but it remains low in sodium, making it relatively safe for blood‑pressure management when consumed in moderation.

Is the milk protein in this drink a concern for people with a milk allergy or lactose intolerance?

Yes, the product contains skimmed milk and added milk protein, which trigger a milk allergy, but the added lactase enzyme breaks down lactose, so it is safe for most people with lactose intolerance.

Product Insights

High protein milk drink is a lactose‑free skimmed milk beverage that belongs to the milk and dairy products group. It delivers a high protein level of 7 g per 100 ml while keeping fat (0.1 g), saturated fat (0.1 g) and salt (0.08 g) low, and it carries a Nutri‑Score of B. However, it is classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and contains added milk proteins, minerals and the lactase enzyme, so it is not suitable for those avoiding dairy allergens despite being low in sugar (2.5 g per 100 ml).
