What’s actually in it

first on the label · Maltodextrin, protein blend (whey concentrate, calcium caseinate, egg albumen, sweet dairy whey), cocoa, natural & artificial flavors, MCTs, full list read.

artificial flavour'Artificial flavouring substances' on the label. Not dangerous at these doses, just a sign the food needs a costume.

The fine print

Maltodextrin: A starch that legally isn’t ‘sugar’, so it never shows in the sugar line, yet has a glycemic index of 85–105, higher than table sugar. The classic ‘sugar-free’ loophole.
Acesulfame-K: Zero-calorie artificial sweetener, usually paired with sucralose to round off the aftertaste.
FSSAI: 15 g/100 g · 4 g/100 kcal, may legally print “HIGH PROTEIN” via the per-100 g route. 1.2 kg of carbs to 240 g of protein in the tub, a calorie shovel for hardgainers, not a protein source. 15% protein by weight.
