Why is Lait concentré non sucré demi‑écrémé classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product undergoes concentration and high‑temperature sterilisation, and it includes two stabilisers, sodium phosphates (E339) and carrageenan (E407), which are typical of ultra‑processed foods, placing it in NOVA group 4.

How does the high sugar content in this product affect a diabetic diet?

With 12 g of sugars per 100 g, the product can cause a rapid rise in blood glucose, so people managing diabetes should limit or avoid it unless it fits within their counted carbohydrate allowance.

Is the milk in this product a concern for people with lactose intolerance or milk allergy?

Yes; the primary ingredient is semi‑skimmed milk, which contains lactose and the milk protein allergen, so it is unsuitable for individuals with lactose intolerance or a documented milk allergy.
