6/8

claims fully supported

“No Added Sugar”misleading

The nutrition data confirms addedSugar: 0.0g and the label caveat states 'Total sugar contains naturally occurring sugar (fruit powder).' However, date powder (9%) and mango fruit powder (11%) together constitute 20% of the product and are concentrated natural sugar sources contributing to 15g total sugar per 100g. No isolated sugar ingredient is added, but these inclusions functionally serve as sweeteners.

“No Preservatives”true

No preservative-category ingredient appears in the ingredient list or dossiers.

“No Artificial Colours”true

No artificial colour appears in the ingredient list. No E-numbers for colour are listed.

“Ready to Eat”unverified

No directions for use are available in any of the four data sources. The product is categorised as an infant cereal, which typically requires mixing with water or milk before consumption; without preparation instructions, this claim cannot be confirmed or refuted.

“Made by Two Mothers”true

The rawLabelData brandTagline field explicitly states 'Made by Two Mothers', confirming this is an authentic brand descriptor.

“Contains 23% Millets”true

rawLabelData milletContent field states 'This product contains 23% millets', consistent with the declared multigrain blend (sprouted ragi + jowar). The claim is supported by the product's own label data.

“No hydrogenated fats”true

No hydrogenated oil or partially hydrogenated fat appears in the ingredient list. Trans fat is declared as 0.0g per 100g in the nutrition panel.

“No artificial flavours”true

Mango flavour is derived from real mango fruit powder; no artificial flavouring ingredient or flavour-category additive appears in the ingredient list or dossiers.

03 — The fuller picture

Read the whole thing if a one-line verdict isn’t enough.

What’s in favour, and what’s working against it

In favour

Fortified with 10 vitamins and 3 minerals including calcium, iron, zinc, and vitamin D
No preservatives, artificial colours, or artificial flavours
No hydrogenated fats; trans fat is zero
High dietary fibre: 6.4g per 100g
Contains sprouted ragi, improving mineral bioavailability and reducing antinutrients
Naturally sweetened with whole-food date and mango powders — no refined sugar added

Working against

Ultra-processed (NOVA 4) due to added isolated vitamin/mineral fortification blend
15g total sugar per 100g from concentrated date powder and mango fruit powder
Rice ingredient carries inorganic arsenic risk — heightened concern in infant cereals
Cross-contamination risk with wheat and nuts declared on label
No FSSAI licence number visible, limiting regulatory traceability

Who should approach with care

Infants — Multiple ingredients (rice, oats, sprouted ragi, milk solids, mango powder, date powder) carry infant-specific cautions — including inorganic arsenic risk from rice, cow's milk protein allergy risk, and concentrated sugar from date powder — meaning introduction should occur only after paediatric guidance, in line with FSSAI infant food regulations.

Children — Children consume more food relative to body weight and are particularly vulnerable to cumulative inorganic arsenic exposure from rice; dietary variety and portion moderation are recommended by FDA and EFSA for rice-containing infant cereals.

Kidney Disease — Sprouted ragi, rice, milk solids, date powder, and mango powder collectively contribute significant phosphorus, potassium, and calcium loads, which individuals with chronic kidney disease requiring mineral restriction must manage under dietitian supervision.

Lactose Intolerance — Milk solids (33% of the product) contain lactose and may cause bloating, diarrhoea, and abdominal cramps in lactose-intolerant individuals.

Diabetes — Date powder (>70% natural sugars) and rice (high glycaemic index) can elevate blood glucose; individuals with pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes should exercise careful portion control.

Pregnancy — Rice in the product is associated with inorganic arsenic exposure; FDA and EFSA advise pregnant women to diversify grain intake rather than rely on rice-heavy products to minimise arsenic-related developmental risks.

Gluten Intolerance — Oats and sorghum are inherently gluten-free, but the label declares manufacture in a facility that processes wheat; individuals with coeliac disease should avoid this product unless certified gluten-free.

Ibs — The high insoluble and soluble fibre from ragi, sorghum, and oats, combined with the high-FODMAP fructose and fermentable fibre in date powder, may exacerbate bloating, cramping, and altered bowel habits in IBS-sensitive individuals.

Thyroid Disease — Finger millet (ragi) and sorghum belong to millet families that contain goitrogenic compounds potentially interfering with thyroid hormone synthesis at high habitual intake; individuals on thyroid medication should exercise caution.

Phenylketonuria — Milk solids (33%) contribute phenylalanine-rich casein and whey proteins; individuals with phenylketonuria must carefully account for this phenylalanine contribution within their strictly controlled low-phenylalanine diet.

Gout — Date powder is high in fructose, which can elevate serum uric acid levels and risk precipitating gout flares in predisposed individuals.

Other — Individuals with confirmed cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA), oat-specific avenin hypersensitivity, or mango/Anacardiaceae family allergy must avoid this product, as it contains the respective primary allergenic proteins and compounds.

The full analysis

This product is primarily bought by parents of infants and toddlers looking for a natural, millet-based weaning cereal without synthetic additives. Its ingredient list is commendably clean — no preservatives, no artificial colours or flavours, no hydrogenated fats — and it is fortified with an impressive array of vitamins and minerals relevant to infant development. The most important thing a parent should know is that while the 'No Added Sugar' claim is technically accurate (no sugar is added separately), date powder at 9% and mango fruit powder at 11% are concentrated whole-fruit sugar sources that together account for the 15g of total sugar per 100g; the product is nutritionally sound overall, but the sugar contribution from these ingredients should not be overlooked when deciding serving frequency for young children.
