Why is Flageolet verts classified as moderately processed (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

NOVA 3 indicates the beans are cooked and canned with only water and sea salt, without any industrial formulations; the label shows zero additives, so the product contains only green flageolet beans, water and sea salt.

How does the salt content of 0.58 g per 100 g in Flageolet verts impact a hypertensive or low‑sodium diet?

At 0.58 g of salt per 100 g, the product contributes about 10 % of the World Health Organization’s recommended maximum daily sodium intake, making it acceptable in moderation but unsuitable as a main source of sodium for strict low‑salt diets.

Is Flageolet verts compatible with vegan, gluten‑free, and other common dietary restrictions?

Yes, the beans are certified organic, contain no animal ingredients, and are free from gluten, dairy, nuts and soy, making them suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, lactose‑free and most allergen‑avoidance diets.
