Why is Filet de truite & riz basmati Sauce à la ciboulette classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

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

With only 0.6 g of sugar per 100 g, the product is suitable for blood‑glucose management, and its 0.79 g of salt is well below the average for similar meals, making it a relatively safe option for people monitoring sugar or blood pressure, though overall dietary patterns should still be considered.
