Our take
CleanPlate reviewLow-fat paneer with 25 g protein and moderate sodium
Heritage Nourish+ High Protein Paneer is a block made from milk solids with vinegar and glucono delta-lactone. The panel is printed per 100 g, and the 240 g net quantity is taken from the listing because the pack does not print it clearly.
CleanPlate scores it [L]BA2. The B for nutrition reflects 25 g protein and natural calcium per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects whole or lightly processed ingredients (led by milk solids), and almost no additives. The [L] marks a hollow label promise: the claim "Low Fat Paneer" does not hold: fat 9 g is over the low-fat line. The 2 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (sodium 214 mg, free sugar 0 g, saturated fat 5.8 g per 100 g).
Claims vs reality
What the pack says, checked against the ingredient list and nutrition panel.
- On the packHolds
“60g Protein”
The panel shows 25 g protein per 100 g, so a 240 g pack carries about 60 g.
- On the packMisleading
“Low Fat Paneer”
The panel shows 9 g fat per 100 g, above the 3 g line for a low-fat claim, though far below regular paneer.
- On the packHolds
“Source of Calcium”
The panel shows 514 mg calcium per 100 g.
- On the packBe careful
“NOURISH is only the Brand name”
The pack itself says the word Nourish is a brand name and not a description.

Common misconceptions
Myth: "Low fat means under 5 g"
CleanPlate treats low fat as 3 g per 100 g or less, which this paneer does not meet.
Myth: "High protein paneer has a lot of fat"
This one has 9 g per 100 g, far less than regular paneer.
