Why is Intense chocolate plant-based dessert classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is classified as ultra-processed because its formulation relies on industrially derived ingredients such as refined sugar, soy juice, cocoa, processed starch, pectin (E440) and natural flavours, and the presence of the additive pectin (E440) places it in the NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar content of this dessert affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 12.6 g of sugar per 100 g the product adds a moderate glucose load that can raise blood sugar levels, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic control, while its low salt (0.13 g) does not pose a hypertension risk but the overall sugar still limits its suitability.

Is Intense chocolate plant-based dessert suitable for vegan, gluten-free and low-salt diets, and are there any allergens to consider?

The dessert contains only plant-derived ingredients, is certified gluten-free and low in salt, so it fits vegan and low-salt diets, but it includes soy, which is an allergen for those with soy sensitivity.
