What’s favorable
- Sea Buckthorn Pulp

Sea Buckthorn beverage with undisclosed preservatives and acidity regulator
This beverage contains sea buckthorn pulp, which is known for its nutritional value. However, it includes "Permitted Class II Preservatives" without specifying which ones, making it difficult for consumers to know exactly what they are consuming. An acidity regulator is also present, which is a common additive in many food products.

Decode Label Analysis
This lack of transparency prevents consumers from knowing which specific preservatives are present, which can be a concern for individuals with sensitivities or those who prefer to avoid certain additives.
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 label does not provide information to verify if the formula is ancient or based on Vedic principles.
The label makes a strong claim about the potency and benefits of sea buckthorn, but it does not provide scientific evidence or substantiation for these claims.
Sea Buckthorn Pulp is the first ingredient listed, indicating it is a primary component of the juice.
The nutrition information states 690 mg of Vitamin C.
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.
