What’s actually in it

The fine print

Sugar: Plain added sugar, the honest villain. Counted by the gram in the Clean score.
Sucralose: Zero-calorie artificial sweetener. Regulators rate it safe at normal intake; a 2023 lab study flagged a trace impurity (sucralose-6-acetate) as genotoxic in cells. Doses there were far above what a scoop delivers.
FSSAI: 15 g/100 g · 3.3 g/100 kcal, may legally print “HIGH PROTEIN” via the per-100 g route. Sold for fussy eaters, sweetened with both sugar and sucralose. 28 g added sugar per 100 g is a lot of ‘growth’.
