Why is 3027030015191 classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The mix is labelled NOVA 4 because it combines refined ingredients, multiple additives and industrial processing steps; its additive list includes emulsifiers E471 (mono‑ and diglycerides of fatty acids), E472a, E470a, the raising agents E575 and sodium carbonates (E500), a thickener E415 (xanthan gum), and a flavoring, all of which are typical of ultra‑processed foods.

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

With 33 g of sugar per 100 g, the mix can cause rapid glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for uncontrolled diabetes, while its 0.49 g of salt per 100 g is substantially lower than the average snack but still contributes to daily sodium intake, so hypertensive individuals should limit portion size.

Is the wheat flour in this mix a problem for people with gluten intolerance?

Yes. The product contains wheat flour and wheat starch, both of which provide gluten; therefore it is not safe for anyone with celiac disease or non‑celiac gluten sensitivity.
