Why is Multifruit Nectar classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is rated NOVA 4 because its fruit juices are first concentrated, then reconstituted and sweetened, a process that involves multiple industrial steps; despite this, the label lists no additives – the only extra ingredient is sugar, which is used to achieve the desired sweetness.

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

With 9.6 g of sugar per 100 ml, the nectar adds a noticeable amount of carbohydrates, so people with diabetes should count it toward their daily carb allowance, while the very low salt (0.01 g) makes it safe for most hypertensive diets.

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

The formulation is plant‑based, contains no animal products or gluten, so it is suitable for vegan and gluten‑free diets, but the sugar content makes it unsuitable for strict keto plans, and halal certification is not indicated on the label.
