Why is Gnocchi aux flocons de pommes de terre classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

The gnocchi is made from rehydrated potato flakes, durum wheat semolina and a thin coating, which involves industrial processing steps such as dehydration and mixing, placing it in NOVA group 3.

How does the sugar and salt content of this gnocchi affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

With only 0.5 g of sugar per 100 g, the product is low‑sugar and therefore suitable for a diabetic diet when consumed in moderation. However, the salt content of 1.2 g per 100 g is moderate and can contribute to daily sodium intake, so individuals with hypertension should limit portion sizes or balance it with low‑salt meals.
