Why is Dark chocolate with fleur de sel classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is labeled NOVA 4 because it combines cocoa paste, sugar, milk fat and other ingredients that are industrially refined, and it includes added components such as sunflower lecithin as an emulsifier (E322) and a natural vanilla flavoring, which are typical of ultra‑processed foods.

How does the high sugar and salt content in this chocolate affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

The 48 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for diabetics who need to limit simple sugars, while the 0.5 g of salt contributes to sodium intake that may raise blood pressure, so it should be consumed only in small portions by those with hypertension.

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

Yes, the bar contains anhydrous milk fat, which triggers the listed milk allergen; it is therefore unsafe for anyone allergic to dairy, and although lactose may be minimal, the presence of milk proteins still poses a risk for lactose‑intolerant individuals.
