Why is Biscuit Petit Dej Figue, Raisin, Graines classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is classified as ultra-processed because it is made from refined flours, added refined sugars, vegetable oil and industrial leavening agents, and it includes the additives sodium carbonate (E500), sodium bicarbonate (E500ii) and ammonium carbonate (E503, E503i) used as raising agents.

How does the sugar and salt content in this biscuit affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 19.6 g of sugar per 100 g, the biscuit can cause a rapid increase in blood glucose, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic control; the 0.6 g of salt per 100 g adds to daily sodium intake and may exacerbate hypertension, especially if consumed regularly.

Is the wheat content in this product a concern for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease?

Yes, the biscuit contains wheat flour (type T65) and other cereal flours that provide gluten, so it should be avoided by anyone who must follow a gluten-free diet.
