Why is Myrtille bio classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The jam is labelled NOVA 4 because it undergoes industrial processing that includes refining cane sugar, adding a gelling agent, and using organic fruit purees; the only additive listed is pectin (E440), which acts as a stabiliser and thickener.

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

With 44 g of sugar per 100 g, the jam can cause rapid spikes in blood glucose, making it unsuitable for people managing diabetes; its very low salt (0.03 g) means it does not significantly impact hypertension, but the overall high sugar outweighs any benefit from the low sodium.

Is Myrtille bio suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or keto diets?

The jam is certified vegan and contains no animal‑derived ingredients or gluten, but its high sugar content and lack of protein make it incompatible with keto or other very low‑carb diets.
