Why is Biscuits flocons d'avoine saveur Thé Vert classified with a Nutri‑Score of C and what specific additives does it contain?

The Nutri‑Score calculation gives points for energy (1830 kJ), 14 g of added sugars and 0.45 g of salt, which together outweigh the positive points earned for its 8.4 g of fiber and 8.9 g of protein, resulting in a net score of 7 and a grade of C. The product lists three food‑grade additives: potassium tartrate (E336), sodium carbonate (E500i) and ammonium carbonate (E503i), all used as leavening agents.

How does the sugar and gluten content in this biscuit affect a diabetic or celiac individual?

Each 100 g serving provides 14 g of sugars, which can raise blood glucose and should be counted within a diabetic meal plan; the biscuit also contains wheat‑derived oat flour that includes gluten, making it unsuitable for anyone with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.

Based on its ingredients, is this biscuit suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or low‑carb diets?

The formulation is fully vegan, containing only plant‑based ingredients, but it is not gluten‑free because of oat and barley flours, and its carbohydrate content (60 g per 100 g) and added sugars make it incompatible with strict low‑carb regimes.
