Why is Olives vertes dénoyautées classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is placed in NOVA group 3 because, besides the natural olives and water, it includes added salt, acidity regulators (lactic acid E270 and citric acid E330) and an antioxidant (ascorbic acid E300), which qualify it as a processed rather than a minimally‑processed food.

How does the high salt content in this product affect a hypertensive diet?

At 3.5 g of salt per 100 g, the olives exceed the typical recommendation for sodium intake and can raise blood pressure, making them unsuitable for individuals who need to limit salt, such as those with hypertension.

Based on the ingredients, is this product suitable for strict diets like vegan, keto, halal, or gluten‑free?

Yes, the product is vegan (no animal‑derived ingredients), very low in carbohydrates (0 g sugars), fits keto macronutrient profiles, contains no gluten‑containing grains, and uses only plant‑based components, so it is compatible with vegan, keto, halal and gluten‑free diets.
