Why is Purée lentilles corail, potimarron classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

The product is placed in NOVA 3 because the lentils are pre‑cooked, the recipe includes refined oils, corn starch and a soy‑based sauce, all of which constitute industrial processing; however the label reports zero added additives, so no E‑numbers or preservatives are present.

How does the low sugar and salt content of this puree affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 1.4 g of sugar and 0.66 g of salt per 100 g, the puree adds minimal glycemic load and contributes far less sodium than typical ready meals, making it a suitable carbohydrate source for diabetics and a safe option for people managing hypertension, provided overall daily intake is balanced.

Is the soy in this product a concern for people with soy allergy?

Yes. The sauce soja component contains soybeans and wheat, and the allergen list flags both soy and gluten, so anyone allergic to soy (or wheat) should avoid this puree.
