Why does this product have a Nutri‑Score of E despite being only minimally processed (NOVA 2)?

Nutri‑Score evaluates the overall nutrient profile; the product’s 100 g of sugar and 400 kcal per 100 g generate the maximum negative points, while it provides no fiber, protein, or beneficial nutrients, leading to an overall E rating.

How does the high sugar content affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

Consuming 100 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes and increase overall caloric intake, which may worsen glycaemic control for diabetics and contribute to weight gain and elevated blood pressure for those with hypertension.

Is this white sugar suitable for vegan, keto, or gluten‑free diets?

The sugar is derived from beet and contains no animal ingredients or gluten, so it is vegan and gluten‑free, but its pure carbohydrate content makes it unsuitable for strict keto diets that restrict carbs.
