Metagenics Ultra Protein

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 2 ingredients to avoid

Metagenics Ultra Protein scores 28/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Metagenics Ultra Protein lists 11 ingredients, starting with Partially Hydrolyzed Milk Protein Isolate, Unsweetened Chocolate, Chicory Root Fiber, Pea Protein Isolate and Magnesium Citrate. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 28/100 Metagenics Ultra Protein scores worse than most protein powders we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein powders is VEGA Pea Protein Powder Chocolate at 100/100.
