Why is Velouté de légumes du potager classified as moderately processed (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

NOVA 3 includes foods made by combining several ingredients without extensive industrial transformations; this soup is made from water, organic vegetables, cream, corn starch and salt, and its label shows zero additives, so it meets the criteria for a moderately processed product.

How does the sugar and salt content of this soup affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

With only 1 g of sugar per 100 ml, the soup has a low glycaemic impact and is generally safe for diabetics, but the 0.55 g of salt per 100 ml contributes to sodium intake and should be limited by those managing high blood pressure.

Is the celery in this vegetable velouté a concern for individuals with celery allergy, and how is the dairy component labeled?

Yes, celery is listed as a declared allergen, so anyone allergic should avoid the product; the cream component contains milk, which is also highlighted as an allergen on the label.
