Why is this pancake classified as moderately processed (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

It is classified as NOVA 3 because the ingredients are mostly minimally processed whole foods such as split pea water, oat bran, rice flour and potato flakes, but it also includes processed components like powdered skimmed milk, refined sunflower oil and leavening agents. The only listed additives are potassium tartrate (E336) and sodium carbonate (E500) used in the leavening mixture.

How does the salt content of this product affect a hypertensive diet?

With 0.83 g of salt per 100 g, the pancake contributes a moderate amount toward the recommended daily limit of about 5 g of salt. People managing high blood pressure should consider this salt contribution within their total daily intake and may need to limit portion size or balance it with lower‑salt foods.

Is the wheat starch in this pancake a concern for people with gluten intolerance?

Yes. Wheat starch contains gluten, and the product is labeled as containing gluten, so it is not safe for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
