Why is Fine spinach & pine nut patties classified as processed (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

The product is assigned to NOVA 3 because its ingredients are mechanically processed (flaked, cooked, rehydrated) but the label lists zero additives, so no additive substances are present.

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

With only 2.6 g of sugar per 100 g, the patty is low‑sugar and therefore suitable for diabetic meal planning, while its 1 g of salt per 100 g is slightly below the category average but still moderate, so people with hypertension should consume it in controlled portions.

Is the gluten from whole wheat a concern for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance?

Yes; the product contains whole‑wheat flakes and wheat flour, both of which provide gluten, and it is labelled as containing gluten, making it unsuitable for anyone requiring a gluten‑free diet.
