Rating:     Not Clean

Ingredient Score:

The ‘Rockstar Mango’ earns a 2/5 green leaves rating on our scale for cleaner food options. This product, positioned in the energy drink market, is not organic and contains genetically modified ingredients, which significantly impacts its rating.

The inclusion of added sugars, such as sugar and citric acid, detracts from the product’s healthiness. Furthermore, it contains several additives like natural flavor, sodium citrate, potassium sorbate, and caramel color, which are considered potentially harmful. More concerning are the known harmful additives, specifically caramel color, sodium benzoate, and artificial colors Yellow 5 and Yellow 6, which further reduce its score. These ingredients are often scrutinized for their health implications.

This product also features a mix of vitamins and herbal extracts, such as B vitamins, milk thistle extract, panax ginseng root extract, and guarana seed extract. While these components may offer some nutritional benefits, they are overshadowed by the negative aspects of the other ingredients.

The ‘Rockstar Mango’ is an example of a product that has significant room for improvement in terms of health and cleanliness. Removing artificial colors and flavors, switching to non-GMO and organic ingredients, and reducing added sugars would be necessary steps to enhance its standing. As it is, the drink does not align with the goal of providing cleaner food options to consumers seeking healthier alternatives in a market saturated with unhealthy choices.

Consumers are increasingly looking for products that support their well-being without compromising on ingredient quality. As such, the ‘Rockstar Mango’ does not meet the standards for those seeking clean and healthy food and beverage options. It is essential for manufacturers to consider these factors if they aim to appeal to health-conscious consumers.
