Why does this dark chocolate have a Nutri‑Score of E, and which nutrients are responsible for the low grade?

The Nutri‑Score is driven by the product’s high energy (554 kcal), very high sugar (42 g) and saturated fat (23 g) levels, all of which generate many negative points, while its protein (6.3 g) and fruit/vegetable content (0 %) provide few positive points, resulting in an overall low grade.

How does the high sugar and saturated fat content affect people with diabetes or heart‑related conditions?

For diabetics, the 42 g of sugar can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, requiring careful portion control, and the 23 g of saturated fat may raise LDL cholesterol, increasing cardiovascular risk for those with heart disease; moderation and balancing with low‑sugar, low‑fat foods is advised.

Is this chocolate suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or keto diets?

All listed ingredients are plant‑based, so the bar can be vegan if the cane sugar is processed without animal bone char (the label lists it as “maybe”). Trace amounts of gluten and milk may be present, so it is not guaranteed gluten‑free. With 42 g of sugar per 100 g, the carbohydrate load is far above keto limits, making it unsuitable for keto diets.
