Why is Ravioli Poulet Bolognaise classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The NOVA system labels it as ultra‑processed because the product combines refined wheat semolina, dehydrated vegetables, powdered spices, a natural flavoring and processed dairy (lactoserum), all of which involve multiple industrial steps. Although the label reports zero listed additives, the presence of processed ingredients such as wheat flour, yeast, and natural flavoring qualifies it as NOVA 4.

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

With 4.6 g of sugars and 1.3 g of salt per 100 g, the sugar level is below the category average and can fit into a controlled‑carb plan for diabetics when consumed in moderation. However, the moderate salt amount contributes to daily sodium intake, so people with hypertension should limit portions to keep sodium levels within recommended limits.

Is the wheat flour in this product a concern for people with gluten intolerance?

Yes. The dough contains wheat semolina and wheat flour, both of which are sources of gluten. The product is therefore unsuitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
