Why is Lasagnes Légumes Grillés, Mozzarella classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is fully prepared, grilled, rehydrated, assembled and frozen, which places it in NOVA group 3 (processed foods); the only listed food additive is citric acid (E330), used as an acidity regulator in the mozzarella.

How does the sugar and salt content of this lasagna affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

With 3.2 g of sugar per 100 g, the lasagna provides a modest carbohydrate amount that can fit within a controlled‑carb diet when portion sizes are managed, and its low salt level of 0.57 g per 100 g makes it suitable for most hypertension‑friendly eating plans.

Is the mozzarella in this product a problem for people with a milk allergy?

Yes; the mozzarella, along with the rehydrated skimmed milk, butter and cream, all contain dairy proteins, so the product is not safe for anyone with a milk allergy.
