Why is CAPPUCCINO Decaffeinato classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is labeled NOVA 4 because the product is made from several refined industrial ingredients, skimmed milk powder, added sugar, instant decaffeinated coffee, whey powder, salt and a natural flavoring, each of which undergoes extensive processing; the formulation lists no artificial additives, so the only non‑nutrient ingredient is the natural flavor.

How does the high sugar and salt content of this cappuccino affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

With 63 g of sugar and 0.9 g of salt per 100 g, the drink can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes and increase sodium intake well above recommended limits, making it unsuitable for diabetic or hypertensive individuals who need to limit both sugar and salt.

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

The product contains 45 % skimmed milk powder and additional whey powder, both derived from dairy; therefore it is not safe for people with lactose intolerance or a milk allergy, and it must be avoided by those following a strict dairy‑free diet.
