Why is Crème dessert Saveur Pistache classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product combines reconstituted whole milk, concentrated skimmed milk, cream, sugar, modified corn starch and a suite of additives; the presence of added flavours, citrates of sodium, carrageenan, carotenoid colourants and several food‑colour additives (E141, E141i, E141ii, E160, E331, E407) makes it an ultra‑processed food, which places it in the NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar and salt content in this pistachio dessert affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

With 13 g of sugar per 100 g, the dessert can cause a rapid rise in blood glucose, which is unsuitable for tight diabetic control, while its 0.23 g of salt is modest and below the average for dairy desserts, so it poses a lower but still present risk for hypertension when consumed in large quantities.

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

The dessert is made primarily from whole milk, skimmed milk and cream, providing 81.7 % dairy ingredients; therefore it contains lactose and milk proteins, making it unsuitable for individuals with lactose intolerance or milk‑based allergies.
