Why is Quiche Lorraine sans Pâte classified in NOVA group 3 and what additives does it contain?

The product is placed in NOVA group 3 because it is a formulated food that combines several processed ingredients such as cooked ham, cheese and starches, but it does not undergo the extensive industrial formulation that defines NOVA 4. The only listed additive is E300 (ascorbic acid), used as an antioxidant.

How does the salt content of this quiche affect a hypertensive diet?

With 0.67 g of salt per 100 g, the quiche provides less than one third of the typical daily recommended maximum of 5 g, making it a relatively low‑salt option for people managing high blood pressure, though it should still be consumed in moderation as part of an overall balanced diet.

Is this quiche suitable for vegetarian, vegan, gluten‑free, or keto diets?

The quiche is not suitable for vegan or vegetarian diets because it contains pork ham, cheese, and eggs; it is not gluten‑free due to wheat flour; and while its carbohydrate level (8.9 g per 100 g) is moderate, it does not meet the very low‑carb requirement of a strict keto diet.
