Why is BOUILLON GOÛT Beef Reduced-Fat broth classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The broth is made from a blend of processed ingredients such as salt, potato starch, sugar, beef fat, beef extract and multiple flavour enhancers, and it includes added caramel colour (E150a) and rapeseed lecithin emulsifier (E322), which together meet the criteria for an ultra‑processed NOVA 4 product.

How does the salt content in this broth affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

At 0.91 g of salt per 100 g, the broth contributes a modest amount of sodium; it is lower than many processed foods but still adds to total daily sodium intake, so people with hypertension should count it toward their limit, while diabetics should focus more on carbohydrate content, which is also low.

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

No, the product contains beef fat and beef extract, making it unsuitable for vegans and not keto‑friendly due to its carbohydrate content; it may contain trace gluten and its halal status is not confirmed, so it does not meet strict gluten‑free, vegan, keto, or halal requirements.
