Why does this anchovy product receive a Nutri-Score of D?

The D grade results from relatively high salt (1.5 g) and saturated fat (2.1 g) that create more negative points than the modest protein and low sugar provide positive points.

How might the salt content of these anchovies affect a hypertensive or low‑sodium diet?

At 1.5 g of salt per 100 g, the product contributes about a quarter of the recommended daily maximum, so people managing blood pressure should limit their portion size.

Are anchovies in this product a problem for individuals allergic to fish?

Yes, anchovies are a fish ingredient and are listed as a confirmed allergen, so anyone with a fish allergy should avoid this product.
