Product Insights
Bresaola is a dry‑cured beef product from Marks & Spencer that belongs to the meat family (PNNS groups: Fish, Meat, Eggs). It carries a Nutri‑Score of E and is classified as an ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) item, mainly due to the presence of curing salt, sodium nitrite, nitrate and added dextrose. While it is very high in protein (34 g per 100 g) and low in fat, sugar and calories, its salt level (7.5 g per 100 g) is considerably above average, making it a nutrient‑dense but salty choice.
