Why is Boisson concentrée à diluer à la grenadine sans sucres classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

A product receives a NOVA 4 rating when it is formulated with industrial ingredients, sweeteners, preservatives, stabilizers and colorants rather than whole foods; this concentrate includes the additives E1400 (caramel color), E202 (potassium sorbate), E330 (citric acid), E415 (xanthan gum), E955 (sucralose) and E960a (stevia glycosides), which all contribute to its ultra‑processed status.

How does the low sugar and low salt content affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

The syrup provides only 0.5 g of sugar and 0.01 g of salt per 100 g, so it adds minimal glucose or sodium to the diet, making it generally safe for people managing diabetes or high blood pressure, though the presence of non‑nutritive sweeteners should still be considered for individual tolerance.

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

The formulation is free from animal‑derived ingredients, so it is vegan, and its carbohydrate content is very low, which fits a keto approach; however, it contains wheat dextrin, a gluten source, so it is not gluten‑free and should be avoided by those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

Product Insights

This 750 ml French‑produced sugar‑free grenadine concentrate is meant to be diluted before consumption.
