Why is Gyozas legumes & gingembre classified as a NOVA 3 product and what does that mean for its processing level?

NOVA 3 indicates a processed food that contains ingredients such as wheat flour, sunflower oil, fermented cabbage and a soy‑based sauce, which are transformed from their original state but do not involve the extensive industrial formulations or additives typical of ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) items.

How does the salt content of 1.3 g per 100 g in these gyozas affect a diet for someone with high blood pressure?

At 1.3 g of salt per 100 g, the product provides a moderate amount of sodium; consuming it in large portions could contribute to daily sodium limits, so individuals with hypertension should limit portion size or balance it with low‑salt foods throughout the day.

Is the soy ingredient in this product a concern for people with soy allergies, and how is it present in the recipe?

Yes, the product contains soy as part of the shoyou sauce, which is listed among the allergens; anyone with a soy allergy should avoid this item because the soy is present in a processed form but remains allergenic.
