Why is this product classified as moderately processed (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

It is made from whole ingredients such as chicken, rice, coconut milk, vegetables and spices; the processing involves cooking and blending but no industrial additives, and the label shows zero additives, so the NOVA 3 rating reflects the use of cooked meat and added salt rather than the presence of food‑industry additives.

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

With only 0.7 g of sugar per 100 g, it is low‑sugar and suitable for people managing blood glucose, while the 0.82 g of salt per 100 g is moderate and should be counted toward daily sodium limits, making it acceptable in controlled portions for hypertensive individuals.

Is the wheat flour in this product a concern for people with gluten intolerance?

Yes, wheat flour contributes gluten, so the product is not safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, although the label highlights the allergen clearly.
