Why Bombucha Beet Kvass Drink scores EA2

01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 0.26 g per 100 ml and energy is 7.1 kcal, so there is almost nothing for the nutrition grade to count. The biggest protein contributor is carrot, at a very small amount.
No vitamins, minerals or fibre are declared on the panel, so nothing else adds to the grade. A drink this light cannot earn much on this axis.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why A
The list is water, sugar, beetroot, carrot, ginger, garlic, onion, cabbage and a set of whole spices. No additive, sweetener, colour, flavour or preservative is listed, so nothing costs ingredient points.
No label promise is hollow, so no label points are lost. Ingredient percentages are not declared, which is the one gap in an otherwise clean list.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Low risk
- Added sugar
- 0 g
- Sodium
- 136.9 mg
03 Load risk: why 2
Sodium is the main driver: 136.9 mg per 100 ml, which is more than half of the risk number. A full 300 ml bottle has about 411 mg.
Sugar adds a smaller part. The panel prints 0 g added sugar, but sugar is on the ingredient list, so the 1.07 g of total sugar is counted. Saturated fat and energy play no part at 7.1 kcal per 100 ml.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Bombucha Beet Kvass Drink live up to its claims?
The low-sugar and no-preservative claims hold, at 1.07 g sugar per 100 ml. The liver detox and sugar-craving promises have nothing on the panel behind them.
- On the packBe careful
“Supports liver detoxification & reduces sugar cravings”
The panel shows 7.1 kcal, 0.26 g protein and no declared vitamins or minerals per 100 ml, nothing that explains either promise. Treat it as wording, not a measured effect.
- On the packHolds
“Low on Sugar”
1.07 g sugar per 100 ml, with 0 g added sugar declared. The sugar on the list is consumed during fermentation, according to the pack.

“No Added Vinegar, Artificial Flavours or Preservatives”
None of these is in the ingredient list, which is whole vegetables, spices, sugar, salt and water.

“Himalayan pink salt”
The retailer page describes Himalayan pink salt, while the pack lists sea salt. Sodium is 136.9 mg per 100 ml either way.

The ingredient list, read for you
Water leads, then sugar, which feeds the fermentation, then beetroot and carrot. Ginger, garlic, onion and cabbage follow, with whole spices (juniper berries, mustard seeds, dill, cloves, black pepper, cumin, coriander, fenugreek, red chilli and bay leaf) giving the savoury, tangy flavour. Sea salt supplies the sodium. No percentages are declared, so the share of beetroot is not known.

What to know about Bombucha Beet Kvass Drink
A 7 kcal beet tonic with big detox claims
Bombucha Beet Kvass is a 300 ml bottle of fermented beetroot drink. The list starts with water, sugar and beetroot, then carrot, ginger, garlic, onion, cabbage and a long run of spices from juniper berries and mustard seeds to bay leaf, with sea salt in the middle. It is bought as a daily tonic by people who like fermented foods and want something savoury instead of a sweet drink.
What you get is very little energy: 7.1 kcal, 0.26 g protein and 1.07 g sugar per 100 ml, about 21 kcal and 3.2 g sugar in the whole bottle. The sugar in the list is there to feed the ferment, and the pack says it is consumed by yeast and bacteria. What it costs is salt: 136.9 mg sodium per 100 ml, about 411 mg in a full bottle. No ingredient percentages are declared.
The name and the vegetable list are straightforward, and no additive, preservative or artificial flavour is listed. The front also claims liver detoxification and fewer sugar cravings, and nothing on the panel backs that up. CleanPlate scores it EA2.
