Why is Organic spelt flour classified as minimally processed (NOVA 1) and does it contain any additives?

The flour is produced simply by milling whole spelt grains, without industrial refining or chemical treatments, and the ingredient list reports only spelt flour (wheat) and possible trace cereals, with zero additives, which qualifies it as NOVA group 1.

Is this flour suitable for vegan, keto, or gluten‑free diets?

The flour is certified vegan because it contains only plant‑derived ingredients, but its high carbohydrate level (68 g per 100 g) and gluten content mean it is not keto‑friendly and cannot be used in gluten‑free diets.
