Why does this cookie receive a Nutri-Score of E and which nutrients are responsible for the low rating?

The Nutri-Score algorithm penalizes high energy, high sugars, high saturated fat and low fruit/vegetable content; with 30 g sugars, 8.9 g saturated fat and 513 kcal per 100 g the negative points outweigh the small positive contribution from 4.1 g fiber, resulting in an E grade.

How does the sugar and fat content of these cookies affect individuals with diabetes or high blood pressure?

The 30 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making them unsuitable for diabetic diets, while the 28 g total fat and 8.9 g saturated fat increase caloric load; although the low salt (0.38 g) is less problematic for hypertension, the overall high calories still challenge weight management.

Is the hazelnut ingredient a concern for people with nut allergies?

Yes, the cookies contain 8.7% chopped hazelnuts and are labeled with the nut allergen, so they must be avoided by anyone allergic to tree nuts.
