Why is Gerblé Lemon‑Ginger Biscuit classified as a moderately processed (NOVA 3) product and what additive does it contain?

NOVA 3 indicates that the biscuit is made with industrial processes and ingredients such as refined flours and added oils, but it does not contain the highly refined additives found in ultra‑processed foods; the only listed additive is citric acid (E330), used as an acidity regulator.

How does the sugar and salt content of this biscuit affect people with diabetes or high blood pressure?

Each 100 g serving delivers 17 g of sugar, which can raise blood glucose levels and should be limited in diabetic diets, while the very low salt level of 0.17 g is unlikely to impact blood pressure significantly.

Is the wheat flour in this biscuit a problem for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease?

Yes, the biscuit contains whole‑grain and semi‑whole‑meal wheat flours, both of which contain gluten, making it unsuitable for anyone requiring a gluten‑free diet.
