Alpro Almond No Sugar

About this product

This unsweetened almond drink carries a wellbeing score of 58% and a safety score of 88%, placing it in Nutri-Grade B. For a plant-based beverage, these scores indicate a moderate nutritional profile with a strong safety record, meaning it's a reasonable everyday choice but not a nutritional powerhouse.

Key supporting ingredients include almonds, which provide heart-healthy unsaturated fats and a creamy texture without added sugar. Calcium (as tricalcium phosphate) and vitamin D2 work together to support bone health, while riboflavin (vitamin B2) aids in normal energy metabolism. These additions help fortify the drink beyond its simple almond base.

On the concern side, salt is present, contributing to a medium sodium level that may be a consideration for those monitoring blood pressure. The added vitamin D2 and vitamin E carry low-to-medium risk only at excessive intake levels, such as hypercalcemia or high-dose effects, but are generally safe within normal consumption. Other ingredients like locust bean gum and gellan gum show only minimal, low-level concerns.

Overall, this is a well-fortified, low-sugar almond beverage with a solid safety profile, though its moderate wellbeing score reflects the need to pair it with other nutrient-dense foods in a balanced diet.
