Why is this Greek yogurt classified as NOVA group 3 and what ingredients drive that rating?

NOVA group 3 indicates a processed food made from several ingredients; the yogurt combines whole milk, sheep cream, skimmed milk powder and cultured lactic ferments, all of which require industrial processing and formulation, placing it in that category.

How does the sugar and saturated‑fat content affect a diabetic or heart‑healthy diet?

The sugar level (3.4 g per 100 g) is lower than many yogurts, which helps moderate blood glucose spikes, but the saturated‑fat content (5.8 g per 100 g) is high and can raise LDL cholesterol, making it less ideal for strict heart‑healthy or low‑saturated‑fat diets.

Is the milk in this yogurt a concern for people with lactose intolerance or milk allergy?

Yes, the product contains cow's milk, sheep cream and skimmed milk powder, so it is not suitable for anyone with a milk allergy and may still cause symptoms in lactose‑intolerant individuals, although fermentation reduces some lactose.
