Why is My instant baker's yeast classified as processed (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

The yeast is produced by fermenting sugar, concentrating the microorganisms and drying them, which places it in the processed (NOVA 3) category; the ingredient list shows only pure yeast with zero additives.

How does the salt content of this yeast affect a low‑sodium diet?

With 1.2 g of salt per 100 g, the yeast adds a modest amount of sodium, so when used in typical baking quantities (a few grams) it contributes minimally to daily sodium intake, making it acceptable for most low‑sodium eating plans.

Is My instant baker's yeast suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or keto diets?

Yes, the yeast is plant‑based and contains no gluten, making it vegan and gluten‑free; however, its carbohydrate content (14.8 g per 100 g) is relatively high for strict keto diets, so it should be used only sparingly in such meal plans.
