Why is Sweet lemon‑flavored dairy specialty classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product contains numerous industrial ingredients such as refined sugar, glucose‑fructose syrup, lemon flavor, added aroma compounds, sodium citrate, citric acid, a rice‑derived thickener, curcumin (E100) as a colorant, and live lactobacillus cultures, all of which place it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar and salt content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 10.9 g of sugars per 100 g, the dessert can raise blood‑glucose levels and should be consumed in moderation by people with diabetes, while its 0.16 g of salt is relatively low and unlikely to impact blood pressure significantly for most hypertensive individuals.

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

Yes, the product contains skimmed milk, skimmed milk powder and milk as a colorant, so it is not suitable for anyone with a milk allergy and may cause symptoms in those who are lactose intolerant despite being low‑fat.
