Our take

CleanPlate review

Oats, soy, whey and real cocoa, sweetened with jaggery

Pintola High Protein Oats Chocolate is oats (42%), a protein blend (27%) of textured soy, soy isolate and whey concentrate, raisins, almonds, pumpkin and chia seeds (12%), organic jaggery (10%), cocoa solids (7%), jowar flakes and pink salt.

CleanPlate scores it BA2. The B for nutrition reflects 26 g protein and 9.6 g fibre per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects a mix of whole and refined ingredients (led by oats, texturized soy protein and soy protein isolate), and almost no additives. The 2 for risk is low: sodium, free sugar and saturated fat are all modest (sodium 130 mg, free sugar 9.5 g, saturated fat 2.1 g per 100 g).

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Jaggery is not sugar"

Jaggery is less refined, but the body treats it like sugar, and the WHO counts it as free sugar.

Myth: "25 g protein means a protein shake in a bowl"

The 25 g is per 100 g; a 40 to 50 g serve gives 10 to 13 g, about a quarter of a day's need, before milk.

How often, and how

  • Healthy adultsDaily
  • ChildrenDaily
  • Diabetes or prediabetesA good choice

Smarter ways to eat it

Sweeten with fruit

Banana, berries or chopped apple on top add sweetness and fibre without more jaggery or sugar.

Mix with plain oats

Half a scoop of this with plain rolled oats keeps most of the protein boost and halves the sugar or salt per bowl.
