Why is Confiture Extra Fraise classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The jam is placed in NOVA group 4 because it contains refined cane sugar, a concentrated lemon juice, and the additive pectin (E440) used as a gelling agent, all of which are ingredients that undergo industrial processing beyond simple mixing, and the product is packaged in glass with a metal lid.

How does the sugar content in this jam affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 40 g of sugar per 100 g, the jam can cause rapid blood glucose spikes and is not suitable for a diabetic diet; the salt level is low (0.18 g per 100 g) so it does not pose a major concern for hypertension, but the overall high sugar makes it a poor choice for blood sugar or blood pressure management.

Is Confiture Extra Fraise suitable for a vegan diet?

All listed ingredients are plant based – strawberries, cane sugar, water, pectin and lemon juice – so the product is generally compatible with a vegan diet, although some consumers may prefer to verify that the cane sugar has not been processed with animal-derived charcoal.
