Why is Crackers pizza classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is made from refined wheat flour, refined vegetable oils, cheese, leavening powders and several convenience ingredients; the label lists calcium phosphates (E341) and sodium/ammonium carbonates (E500) as the main food‑grade additives, which places it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

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

Each 100 g serving provides 5.9 g of sugar, which can raise blood glucose levels and should be limited by people with diabetes, while 1.5 g of salt adds to daily sodium intake and may contribute to high blood pressure, so moderation is advised for hypertensive individuals.

Based on the ingredients, is this product suitable for strict diets like Vegan, Keto, Halal, or Gluten‑Free?

No; the crackers contain dairy ingredients (emmental cheese and whey powder) making them non‑vegan and non‑halal, they include wheat flour so they are not gluten‑free, and with 54 g of carbohydrates per 100 g they are unsuitable for a ketogenic diet.
