Why is Les Raviolis Bio Ricotta Epinard classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

NOVA 3 denotes foods made by combining ingredients such as added salt, oil, eggs or dairy with the original agricultural product; this ravioli fits that definition and the label lists zero additives, so it contains no artificial additives.

How does the sugar and salt content in these organic ricotta spinach ravioli affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

The sugar level is low at 2 g per 100 g, which is generally safe for diabetic control, but the salt content of 1.3 g per 100 g is moderate and may contribute to higher sodium intake, so individuals with hypertension should consume it in moderation.

Is the ricotta cheese in this product a concern for people with milk allergy?

Yes, ricotta is a dairy product containing milk proteins, so the ravioli is not suitable for anyone with a milk allergy; it also contains gluten from wheat and eggs, which are additional common allergens.
