Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 5.5 ShowHide
Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This beverage is formulated to replenish electrolytes and provide quick energy, making it suitable for active individuals. However, it contains added sugars and the artificial sweetener sucralose, which may not be ideal for regular consumption or for those managing sugar intake. The use of 'Natural Flavours' and 'Nature identical flavouring substances' without further detail means the specific flavouring compounds are not disclosed, which limits transparency for consumers with sensitivities to flavour components. While fortified with vitamins and minerals, its ultra-processed nature and reliance on added sugars and sweeteners mean it offers limited nutritional benefits beyond electrolyte and energy replenishment.

Ingredient Concerns safety database
Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.
Added Sugars
Sugars added to food, and the sugars in honey, syrups and fruit juice concentrates, are "free sugars". The WHO guideline recommends that they stay below 10% of total energy intake and suggests below 5% for additional benefit. Where the sugar sits in the ingredient list and how many grams the panel declares is what matters; this is information, because the nutrition score already prices the grams.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: WHO, Guideline: Sugars intake for adults and children (2015)
Added Sugars: regulation, sources and other products →Flavouring Substances
Indian rules classify added flavours as natural, nature-identical (chemically synthesised copies of natural compounds) or artificial, and require the class to be declared. The label names the class, not the compounds, so a reader cannot see which substances make up the blend, or whether it carries something they avoid. This is information about transparency, not a finding of harm.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: FSS (Food Products Standards and Food Additives) Regulations 2011, flavours; FSS (Labelling and Display) Regulations 2020
Flavouring Substances: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Contains 'Natural Flavours' and 'Nature identical flavouring substances' where the specific flavouring compounds are not listed on the label, limiting transparency for consumers with sensitivities.
Contains added sugars (Dextrose, Sugar). WHO advises keeping free sugar intake under 10% of total energy, ideally under 5%.
Claim check
Front-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
The term 'Recharge' is a marketing term that cannot be verified from the ingredient list or nutrition facts.
The product contains mineral salts, dextrose, sodium citrate, potassium chloride, and sodium chloride, which are ingredients commonly found in rehydration formulas.
The ingredients list 'NATURAL FLAVOUR' and 'NATURE IDENTICAL FLAVOURING SUBSTANCES', which can include green apple flavour.
The nutrition information states 'added sugar g 0'.
The primary ingredient is water, and there is no indication of carbonation.
Read straight from the back-of-pack photo — quantities, sections and any disguised terms, so the small print can’t hide behind the marketing.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
