Which nutrients cause Broyes du poitou to receive an E Nutri-Score?

The E Nutri-Score is driven by very high sugar (31 g per 100 g), very high saturated fat (19 g per 100 g), high overall energy (~2100 kJ per 100 g), low fiber (1.2 g per 100 g) and the complete absence of fruit, vegetable or legume content, which generate many negative points and no positive points.

How might the high sugar and moderate salt levels in Broyes du poitou affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

The 31 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making the biscuit unsuitable for strict diabetic meal plans, while the 0.42 g of salt, although lower than many snacks, still adds to total sodium intake and may exacerbate hypertension if consumed in large quantities.

Is the egg in Broyes du poitou a concern for people with egg allergy?

Yes, egg is listed as an ingredient and is flagged as an allergen, so anyone with an egg allergy should avoid this product; the biscuit also contains wheat (gluten) and butter (milk), which are additional common allergens.
