Why is Moutarde mi-forte classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The mustard is considered ultra‑processed because it combines basic mustard seeds with industrial ingredients such as sunflower oil, vinegar, and three food‑grade additives: E224 (potassium sulfite) as a preservative, E330 (citric acid) as an acidifier, and E415 (xanthan gum) as a thickener.

How does the high fat and salt content of this mustard affect individuals with hypertension or cardiovascular concerns?

The product’s fat (23.6 g per 100 g) adds significant calories, and its salt (4.7 g per 100 g) can raise blood pressure; therefore people with hypertension or heart disease should use it sparingly and consider lower‑fat, lower‑salt alternatives.

Is this mustard suitable for a vegan or keto diet, and are there any allergens to be aware of?

Yes, the formula contains only plant‑derived ingredients, making it vegan and low in carbohydrates, which fits a keto regimen, but it does contain mustard seeds (a known allergen) and sulfites, so those sensitivities should be considered.
