How does the sugar and salt content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 2.94 g of sugar and 0.10 g of salt per 100 g, the product is relatively low in both nutrients, so it can fit into a controlled‑carbohydrate or low‑sodium plan, but portion size should still be managed because the total carbohydrate load can add up and the product contains gluten and soy, which may be problematic for some individuals.

Based on the ingredients, is Peanut Butter Crunch suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or keto diets?

No. The bar contains wheat flour and wheat gluten, so it is neither vegan nor gluten‑free, and it includes sugar and grain‑based carbs, making it unsuitable for strict keto diets.
