Why is Risotto aux crevettes classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is actually rated NOVA 3, meaning it is a processed food rather than ultra‑processed, and its label confirms that it contains zero added preservatives, colourings or other additives.

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

With only 1.9 g of sugars and 0.56 g of salt per 100 g, the risotto is relatively low in both nutrients, making it more suitable than many processed meals for people managing blood‑sugar or blood‑pressure, though it should still be consumed in moderation within a balanced diet.

Is the shrimp in this product a concern for people with shellfish allergies?

Yes, the dish contains 19.5 % peeled shrimp, which is a major crustacean allergen, so anyone allergic to shellfish should avoid this meal.
