Why is Double concentré de tomates classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is placed in NOVA group 3 because the tomatoes are cooked, reduced and concentrated, and the formulation includes added salt and an acidity regulator; the only listed additive is citric acid (E330).

How does the sugar and salt content of this tomato paste affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

The product provides 12 g of sugars and 1.2 g of salt per 100 g, which is considerably higher than typical tomato products, so diabetics need to count the sugars toward their total carbohydrate intake and hypertensive individuals should limit portion size to keep sodium intake in check.

Is Double concentré de tomates suitable for vegan, keto, or gluten‑free diets?

The ingredient list contains only tomato puree, salt and citric acid, all plant‑based and free of gluten, making it compatible with vegan, keto and gluten‑free diets, although the relatively high natural sugar may be a consideration for strict keto plans.
