Why is Blanc de Poulet - Doré au Four classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is labelled NOVA 4 because it goes beyond simple meat cutting and includes numerous formulated ingredients such as added salt, corn dextrose, ferments, an antioxidant (sodium ascorbate, E301) and a colourant (caramel ordinary, E150a), which are typical of ultra‑processed foods.

How does the salt content in this product affect a hypertensive diet?

With 1.8 g of salt per 100 g, the product contributes a significant portion of the recommended maximum daily sodium intake (about 5 g of salt); people with hypertension should limit portion sizes or choose lower‑salt alternatives to avoid exceeding dietary limits.

Is the celery ingredient a concern for people with celery allergy?

Yes. Celery is listed both as an ingredient and as an allergen, so anyone diagnosed with a celery allergy should avoid this product to prevent allergic reactions.
