Health Integrity Analysis
Is Gu Chocolate Outrage truly good for you, or is it just clever marketing? We analyzed the nutritional density, ingredient safety, and processing levels using the CakeID Algorithm. With a calculated health score of 40/100, here is the deep dive into what you are actually eating.
⚠️ Additive Watch: Critical Flags
The ingredient list reveals the presence of Sodium Benzoate. A preservative used in acidic foods like soda and pickles. When mixed with Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), it can form Benzene, a known human carcinogen. For health-conscious consumers, this is a significant red flag that lowered the product's overall score.
The Sugar Reality Check
This product contains 25g of sugar per 100g. To put that into perspective, that's equivalent to eating roughly 6 sugar cubes directly. While it might taste great, such a high glycemic load can lead to rapid insulin spikes followed by energy crashes.
Final Verdict
Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Gu Chocolate Outrage achieves a CakeID Score of 40/100.
