Why is Gnocchi à poêler classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

The gnocchi are made from rehydrated potato flakes, wheat and rice flours, salt and spices, which makes the product more than a simple raw ingredient, placing it in NOVA 3. The only listed additive is E270 (lactic acid), used as an acidity regulator, and turmeric is added as a natural colour and flavour.

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

At 1.77 g of salt per 100 g, the gnocchi contribute a moderate amount to daily sodium intake; consuming a typical serving (100 g) provides about 30 % of the WHO’s recommended maximum of 5 g of salt per day, so people with high blood pressure should limit portion size or balance it with low‑salt foods.

Is Gnocchi à poêler suitable for vegan, gluten‑free or low‑carb diets?

The product contains only plant‑derived ingredients, so it is fully vegan. However, it includes wheat flour, making it unsuitable for gluten‑free diets. With 35 g of carbohydrates per 100 g, it is relatively high in carbs and therefore not ideal for strict low‑carb eating plans.
