Why is Extra fig jam classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The jam is assigned to NOVA 4 because it includes refined sugar, concentrated lemon juice and a gelling agent (pectin, listed as E440) that are industrial ingredients, and the formulation undergoes extensive processing to achieve its smooth texture.

How does the sugar content in this jam affect a diabetic or low‑sugar diet?

With 58 g of sugar per 100 g, the jam can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes and therefore should be consumed only in very small portions or avoided by people managing diabetes or following low‑sugar eating plans.

Is the fig ingredient in this jam a concern for people with fruit allergies?

The jam contains real figs, which can trigger reactions in individuals allergic to figs or related fruits; those with known fig allergies should avoid the product, while others can enjoy its fruit flavor.
