Why is Foie de Morue nature au sel de Guérande classified in NOVA group 3 and does it contain any additives?

The product is placed in NOVA 3 because it is a processed food made by extracting, seasoning and canning cod liver; it undergoes industrial processing such as heating but does not contain any added preservatives, colorings or flavorings, so the additive count is zero.

How do the high saturated fat and calorie levels of this cod‑liver pâté affect a heart‑healthy or weight‑controlled diet?

With 9.7 g of saturated fat and 560 kcal per 100 g, the pâté supplies a large share of daily saturated‑fat limits and caloric intake, which can raise LDL cholesterol and hinder weight management if eaten in large portions; it should be consumed sparingly within a balanced diet.

Is the cod liver in this product a concern for vitamin A toxicity or for people with fish allergies?

Cod liver is naturally rich in vitamin A, providing around 0.01 g (≈10 mg) per 100 g, which can approach upper‑intake levels when consumed excessively, and because the product contains fish, it must be avoided by anyone allergic to fish or shellfish.
