Why is Confiture extra 4 fruits classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is considered ultra‑processed because it is made from fruit purées, a large proportion of added refined sugar (about 50 % of the product) and a gelling agent; the only listed additive is pectin (E440), used to achieve the jam’s texture, with no preservatives or flavor enhancers.

How does the sugar content of this jam affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 58 g of sugar per 100 g, the jam can cause rapid spikes in blood glucose, making it unsuitable for tight diabetic control, and although its salt is low, the high sugar adds significant calories, which can indirectly worsen blood‑pressure management if eaten in large amounts.

Based on the ingredients, is this jam suitable for vegan, keto, halal, or gluten‑free diets?

The jam contains only plant‑based ingredients, sugar, mixed berries, lemon juice and pectin, so it is vegan, halal and gluten‑free, but the high carbohydrate and sugar content renders it incompatible with keto or other low‑carb eating plans.
