Why is Mix gourmand classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The snack is labeled NOVA 4 because it undergoes drying, sweetening and the addition of sunflower oil, which are manufacturing steps beyond simple drying; its only added ingredients are sugar and sunflower oil, and no artificial preservatives or colorants are listed.

How does the high sugar and fat content in Mix gourmand affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

The 40 g of sugars per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for tight diabetic control, while the 33 g of fat raises total caloric intake; however, the product contains virtually no salt, so it does not add to sodium load for hypertension but overall calorie density should be considered.

Is Mix gourmand suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or keto diets?

All ingredients are plant‑based, so the mix is vegan, but it is not gluten‑free because traces of gluten are declared; the high carbohydrate (41 g) and sugar content also make it incompatible with keto diet goals.
