Our take

CleanPlate review

Probiotic butter with 983 mg sodium and TBHQ

Nutralite DoodhShakti Probiotic Salted Butter is a 100 g butter spread: butter (82.5%), water, salt, emulsifiers, preservatives, probiotic cultures, starch, vitamins and an antioxidant. The panel is printed per 100 g.

CleanPlate scores it [F]CC5. The C for nutrition is middling: modest protein, fibre and micronutrients per 100 g. The [F] marks that added vitamin A and vitamin D lift the grade; without them it would be E. The C for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by butter and starch), with additives that cost points: TBHQ, flavouring and mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids. The 5 for risk comes mainly from saturated fat (48 g per 100 g) and sodium (983 mg per 100 g).

Claims vs reality

What the pack says, checked against the ingredient list and nutrition panel.

  • Product name

    “Probiotic Salted Butter”

    Partly true

    Two probiotic strains are listed; butter is 82.5% of the product and the rest is water, salt and additives.

  • On the pack

    “Supports immunity”

    Be careful

    A probiotic claim; the pack adds that it is not a substitute for a varied diet and not for medicinal use.

A closer look

Does the label add up?

Butter (82.5%), water, salt, emulsifiers (471, 322), preservatives (202, 200), acidity regulator (330), nature-identical butter flavouring, probiotic cultures (L. rhamnosus, L. reuteri), starch, vitamins, sequestering agent (385), antioxidant (TBHQ, 319) and natural colour (160a(ii)).

Per 100 g: 632 kcal, 70 g fat, 0.04 g sugar of which 0 g added, 0.5 g protein, 983 mg sodium. Saturated fat is printed as 'not more than 48 g' and trans fat as 'not more than 1.2 g' per 100 g. Saturated fat is scored at 48 g and the score is provisional; trans fat is not counted because the fat is dairy. Vitamin A 390 mcg and vitamin D 5 mcg are declared. Atwater energy 632 kcal matches the declared 632 kcal.

Myth: "Butter with water in it is lighter"

It still gives 632 kcal per 100 g.
