Why is Sauce crudité Bulgare Plaisir & Légèreté classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It receives a NOVA 4 label because the ingredient list includes refined sunflower oil, added sugars, a preserved fermented milk base and multiple food-industry additives; the five additives are potassium sorbate (preservative), lactic acid (acidifier), xanthan gum (thickener), antioxidant E385 and a generic flavoring.

How does the sugar and salt content of this sauce affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 11 g of sugar per 100 ml, the sauce can cause a rapid rise in blood glucose and should be used sparingly by people with diabetes, while the 2.2 g of salt contributes to sodium intake but is lower than many dressings, yet still requires caution for hypertension.

Is this sauce suitable for vegan, keto or gluten-free diets?

It is not vegan because it contains milk and egg yolk, it is not keto-friendly due to 11 g of sugar and 13 g of carbohydrates per 100 ml, and it is naturally gluten-free as no wheat-derived ingredients are listed.
