Carbohydrate and Plant Load
15 / 15- Estimated carbohydrate: not calculable
- Pulse ingredients detected: none
- Plant protein concentrates: none
- Ingredient splitting: not detected
Carbohydrate is not calculable because ash is not disclosed. It is left blank rather than overstated.
- NOT SCORED
Carbohydrate burden
Carbohydrate is not precisely calculable because ash has not been disclosed. This is an evidence limitation, not evidence of high carbohydrate, so it is removed from the score and reported as reduced confidence.
- +8 / 8
Ingredient based plant load
Plant load assessed as VERY LOW. No grains, pulses, starches or concentrated plant proteins in the ingredient panel.
How is it made?
5 / 10Processing method: Other. This category measures food integrity only. Raw handling safety is assessed separately under Safety and Quality Control, so a raw food can score well here and still lose safety points.
