Which nutrients cause Emmental bloc to receive a Nutri‑Score of D?

The Nutri‑Score of D is driven mainly by the cheese’s high saturated‑fat content (about 19 g per 100 g) and its moderate salt level (0.85 g per 100 g), which generate many negative points; the low sugar content helps but cannot offset the impact of the fat and salt on the overall score.

Is the cow's milk in Emmental bloc a concern for people with dairy allergies or lactose intolerance?

Yes. Emmental bloc is made from pasteurised cow's milk, so it contains milk proteins and lactose and should be avoided by anyone with a dairy allergy or lactose intolerance.

Can Emmental bloc be included in a keto or low‑carb diet, and is it suitable for gluten‑free or vegan eating?

The cheese is very low in carbohydrates (≈0.5 g sugar per 100 g) and contains no gluten, making it compatible with keto, low‑carb, and gluten‑free diets; however, because it is dairy‑based, it is not vegan.
