Why is Unsweetened Almond classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The drink is labelled NOVA 4 because it undergoes extensive processing, including UHT heat treatment and the addition of several non‑natural ingredients. Its formulation lists stabilisers (guar gum, E412 and xanthan gum, E415), a natural almond flavouring, and sea salt, all of which contribute to its ultra‑processed status.

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

With only 0.5 g of sugar and 0.05 g of salt per 100 ml, the beverage is suitable for people managing blood glucose or blood pressure, as it adds minimal sugar or sodium to the diet. However, it still provides carbohydrates (1.6 g) and calories, so portion control remains important for overall energy balance.

Is the almond ingredient in this beverage a concern for people with nut allergies?

Yes. The product contains almond (approximately 2.8 % of the formulation) and is explicitly labelled with a nut allergen warning. Anyone with a tree‑nut allergy should avoid this drink.
