Why is Chocolate Dough Protein Bar classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The bar is labeled NOVA 4 because its formulation relies heavily on isolated ingredients, sweeteners, and processing aids rather than whole foods; it contains additives including maltitol (E965), sucralose (E955), glycerol (E422), polydextrose (E1200), and lecithins (E322) to improve texture, sweetness, and shelf life.

How does the sugar and salt content of this bar affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only about 1.8 g of total sugars per 100 g, the bar is low‑sugar and therefore has a minimal impact on blood glucose levels, making it more suitable for diabetics, while its salt content of 0.68 g per 100 g is well below typical processed snack levels, posing little risk for hypertension when consumed in moderation.

Is the milk protein in Chocolate Dough Protein Bar a concern for people with dairy allergies?

Yes, the bar lists milk proteins as a primary ingredient and is flagged for the milk allergen, so individuals with dairy allergy or lactose intolerance should avoid it.
