Why is Raisins secs sultanine classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific ingredients lead to this classification?

The product is labeled NOVA 3 because it contains added vegetable oils, cottonseed, rapeseed and sunflower, which are not present in raw grapes; the inclusion of these oils classifies the raisins as processed rather than minimally processed.

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

With 65 g of sugars per 100 g, the raisins can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making them unsuitable for tight diabetic control, while the very low salt (0.04 g) does not add hypertension risk, but the sugar alone limits their use in such diets.

Is the cottonseed oil used in this product a concern for people with allergies or sustainability issues?

Cottonseed oil is a seed‑derived oil that rarely triggers allergies, but individuals sensitive to seed oils should monitor tolerance; environmentally, cottonseed production often involves high pesticide use, which raises sustainability concerns.

Product Insights
