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

The powder combines industrial ingredients such as concentrated whey, barley malt extract, refined sugar, low‑fat cocoa, skimmed and whole milk powders, colza oil, and an acidity regulator (sodium bicarbonate, E500) plus salt, all of which are manufactured and blended, giving it a NOVA 4 ultra‑processed status.

How does the sugar content in TONIMALT Poudre Cacaotée affect a diabetic diet?

With 10.7 g of sugar per 100 g, the product is high in added sugars; consuming it can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, so people with diabetes should limit portion sizes or choose a lower‑sugar alternative.

Is TONIMALT Poudre Cacaotée suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or lactose‑intolerant diets?

No. The formula includes whey concentrate and both skimmed and whole milk powders, which contain lactose, and barley malt extract, which contains gluten, making it unsuitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or lactose‑intolerant consumers.
