Why is Confiture de Peches classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The jam is labeled NOVA 4 because it includes refined ingredients such as white sugar, unrefined cane sugar, concentrated lemon juice and a gelling agent; the only listed additive is E440 (fruit pectin), which is added to achieve the spreadable texture.

How does the high sugar content of this peach jam affect a diabetic or blood-sugar-controlled diet?

With about 59 g of sugar per 100 g, the jam can cause rapid spikes in blood glucose, so people managing diabetes or following low-sugar diets should limit consumption to very small portions or avoid it altogether.

Is the peach ingredient in this jam a concern for individuals with peach allergies?

Yes; the jam's primary fruit is peach, and anyone allergic to peach should avoid it because the fruit pieces can trigger allergic reactions.
