Why is COURONNE ROIS CHOCO 350G classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product includes refined wheat flour, added sugars, invert sugar syrup, vegetable oil, emulsifiers (E471 mono‑ and diglycerides, E481 sodium stearoyl‑2‑lactylate), soy lecithin and the colour beta‑carotene (E160a), all of which are typical ingredients of ultra‑processed foods, resulting in a NOVA group 4 classification.

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

With 20 g of sugar and 0.84 g of salt per 100 g, the brioche can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes and add significant sodium, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic control or hypertension management.

Is the milk powder used in the chocolate chips a problem for lactose‑intolerant or milk‑allergic individuals?

Yes; the chocolate chips contain whole‑milk powder and the recipe also includes butter and fresh cream, so the product is not safe for people with milk allergy or lactose intolerance.
