Which nutrients are responsible for the mustard’s Nutri‑Score of E?

The low rating is driven by a high salt level (5.3 g per 100 g) and saturated fat (1.2 g), which generate 20 negative points for salt and 1 point for saturated fat, while the product only gains a few positive points from fiber and has no fruit/vegetable content, resulting in a net negative score.

How does the high salt content affect a hypertensive diet?

Consuming 5.3 g of salt per 100 g exceeds the recommended daily limit of about 5 g, which can raise blood pressure and increase cardiovascular risk, so people with hypertension should limit their intake of this mustard.

Is this mustard safe for people with a mustard allergy?

No; the product contains mustard seeds, which are a recognized allergen, and can trigger allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to mustard.
