Why is Eco+ Prepared Lentils classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The lentils are partially hydrated and combined with water, salt, and two flavorings, regular aromatic compounds and a smoke aroma, which are considered industrial additives; the presence of these flavorings pushes the product into the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar and salt content in Eco+ Prepared Lentils affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 0.5 g of sugar per 100 g, the product is suitable for diabetic meal planning, but the 0.48 g of salt per 100 g adds modest sodium that people with hypertension should monitor, especially when combined with other salty foods.

Is the celery listed in the ingredients a concern for people with celery allergy?

Yes, the product explicitly lists celery as an allergen in the flavoring, so individuals with a celery allergy should avoid it.
