Why is Nectar multifruits à base de concentrés classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The drink is made from several fruit juices and purees that are first concentrated, then reconstituted and sweetened, involving multiple industrial steps that place it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category. Its label lists three additives: citric acid (E330) as an acidifier, ascorbic acid (E300) as an antioxidant, and stevia glycosides (E960) as a non‑nutritive sweetener.

How does the sugar content of this nectar affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

At 4.9 g of sugar per 100 ml, the nectar provides a moderate amount of carbohydrate that can raise blood glucose levels, so people with diabetes should monitor portion size. The salt level is very low (0.01 g per 100 ml), so it has minimal impact on blood pressure, but the sugar alone remains a concern for hypertensive patients who need to control overall sugar intake.

Is the presence of kiwi and orange in this nectar a concern for people with common food allergies?

Yes. Both kiwi and orange are identified allergens in the product, and individuals who are allergic to either fruit should avoid the nectar because trace amounts may be present throughout the beverage.
