Why is Yaourt Gourmand à La Noix De Coco classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The yogurt is labeled NOVA 4 because it includes several industrial ingredients beyond the basic dairy base, such as the thickener carrageenan (E407), a reconstituted coconut cream made from water, coconut powder and milk‑derived caseinates, added flavorings, citrus fibre, starch and a small amount of added sugar. These components are typical of highly processed food formulations.

How does the sugar and salt content of this yogurt affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 14 g of sugar per 100 g, the product contains roughly twice the amount of sugars found in an average yogurt, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic meal plans without careful carbohydrate counting. The salt level of 0.3 g per 100 g is lower than the average for dairy desserts, so it poses less of a concern for hypertension, but overall moderation is advised due to the high sugar load.

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

Yes. The ingredient list includes whole milk, cream, lactose and milk proteins such as caseinates, all of which trigger reactions in individuals with dairy allergies or cause symptoms in those who are lactose intolerant. The product is therefore not suitable for those avoiding dairy.
