Why is Palets Patate Douce ... classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The NOVA 4 label reflects the use of refined ingredients such as sunflower oil, wheat flour, texturised wheat protein, starches and a complex spice blend, which are industrially processed even though no artificial preservatives or colourings are added; therefore the product is considered ultra-processed without containing any listed additives.

How does the sugar content in this product affect a diabetic diet?

With 4.8 g of sugars per 100 g, the product provides a moderate amount of simple carbohydrates; people managing diabetes should count these sugars within their daily carbohydrate allowance and may need to pair the meal with low-glycemic sides to keep blood glucose stable.

Is this product suitable for a vegan or gluten-free diet?

All listed ingredients are plant-derived, so the product is fully vegan, but it contains wheat flour and wheat gluten, making it unsuitable for those who require a gluten-free diet.
