High Protein Makhana

Tata Sampann · 100 g / 200 g pouch

Tata Sampann High Protein Makhana is essentially plain, whole fox nuts (phool makhana/lotus seeds) marketed as a high‑protein, high‑fibre snack. The product is **100% natural makhana with no added fat, sugar or flavours**, which makes it very different from typical fried or flavoured snacks.

This card is the decision shortcut. The detailed evidence and citations live in the six-axis cards below.

Sugar load

Swiggy Instamart lists Total Sugars · 0. 5 G and Added Sugars · 0 G per 100 g, which is below the <5 g/100 g green threshold.

This indicates no added sugar and only trace intrinsic sugars from lotus seeds.

Processing tier

The product is described as “100% Natural Makhana” (plain fox nuts) rather than a formulated snack with additives, which matches minimally processed seeds (NOVA 1). With no evidence of ultra-processed ingredients or flavour coatings in the provided sources, it fits the NOVA 1–2 green threshold.

Fat profile
■ Awaiting verification

Saturated fat and trans fat values per 100 g are not provided in the supplied nutrition data, so this axis

Sodium
■ Awaiting verification

Sodium (mg per 100 g) is not provided in the supplied nutrition data, so this axis

Marketing deception
■ Think twice trigger

The pack positioning includes “High Protein Makhana” while the nutrition listing shows Protein · 9. 8 G per 100 g, which may lead consumers to overestimate protein density versus truly high-protein staples.

However, the core claim of being plain/unaltered aligns with the “100% Natural Makhana” positioning.

Regulatory history
■ Awaiting verification

No primary registry extracts (FSSAI recall list, ASCI upheld complaints, NCPCR actions, or court records) are included in the supplied sources, so regulatory history
