What the label tells us
Nước tăng lực Sting hương dâu hồng sâm — strawberry red ginseng energy drink. Yenzo rates it “Moderate”: fine in moderation. The main reasons are high sugar (19.5 g per 100 ml). It is also ultra-processed (NOVA 4), going by how Yenzo classifies its ingredients. Plus points: low in salt and low in saturated fat.
Open Food Facts lists 6 additives with a code number — colour: Allura red AC (129); colour retention agent: nicotinic acid (niacin) (375); preservatives: potassium sorbate (202) and sodium benzoate (211); Calcium disodium EDTA (385) and polyphosphates (452). At “moderate” risk: Allura red AC (E129). The rest are at “low” or “very low” risk. Vietnamese labels often print an additive as its function plus its number, for example “chất giữ màu (375)”. The ingredients also name “chất điều chỉnh độ axit” (acidity regulator) and “chất chống oxy hóa” (antioxidant) without a number, so which substance that is cannot be told. There is also artificial flavouring (“low” on the Yenzo Scale).
Of the 18 soft drinks and flavoured drinks in the Yenzo catalogue, 17 others are also rated “Moderate”, and none is rated higher. How much sugar you get depends on how much you use; some products of the same kind list less sugar per 100 ml. See all soft drinks and flavoured drinks
