Why is Ravioli 6 Légumes classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is made from refined wheat semolina, includes a modified corn starch (E1442) and uses natural flavorings such as pepper and garlic extracts, which together place it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 group.

How does the sugar and salt content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 2.1 g of sugars and 0.8 g of salt per 100 g, the ravioli is lower in both sugar and sodium than many ready‑meals, but the carbohydrates still contribute to blood‑glucose levels and the salt should be counted toward daily limits, so moderation is advised for diabetic or hypertensive individuals.

Is the wheat (gluten) in this ravioli a concern for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance?

Yes, the pasta dough contains wheat semolina and wheat flour in the breadcrumb coating, which provide gluten; the product is therefore unsuitable for anyone needing a gluten‑free diet.
