Why is Riz au lait de brebis classified as NOVA 3 and does it contain any additives?

It is classified as NOVA 3 because it is a moderately processed product that combines whole ingredients (sheep milk, rice, sugar, rice starch) without extensive industrial refinement, and the label reports zero additives, meaning no preservatives, colorants or flavor enhancers are added.

How does the sugar and salt content of this sheep‑milk rice pudding affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 10.4 g of sugar per 100 g, the pudding adds a moderate amount of simple carbs that can raise blood glucose, so people with diabetes should consume it sparingly; its low salt level of 0.1 g per 100 g has minimal impact on blood pressure for hypertensive individuals.

Is the sheep milk in Riz au lait de brebis a concern for people with milk allergies?

The product’s main ingredient is whole sheep milk (84.5 % of the formula) and the label explicitly lists milk as an allergen, so anyone allergic to cow’s milk or other mammalian milks should avoid this pudding.
