Health Integrity Analysis
Is Frosted Shredded Wheat 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 85/100, here is the deep dive into what you are actually eating.
✅ Ingredient Quality: Clean Label
A major advantage of Frosted Shredded Wheat is what it doesn't contain. Our scan found no high-risk synthetic dyes (like Red 40), artificial preservatives, or controversial sweeteners. This "Clean Label" status significantly boosts its health rating.
The Sugar Reality Check
This product contains 21g of sugar per 100g. To put that into perspective, that's equivalent to eating roughly 5 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, Frosted Shredded Wheat achieves a CakeID Score of 85/100.
