Why is Fruit Stick - Pomme classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

NOVA 4 covers foods that undergo multiple industrial processes and contain added sugars, flavorings or processing aids; Fruit Stick - Pomme includes concentrated apple puree and juice, a fruit‑derived gelling agent (pectin, listed as additive E440), natural apple flavor and citrus fibre, all of which contribute to its ultra‑processed status.

How does the high sugar content in Fruit Stick - Pomme affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

The product’s 72.8 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for individuals managing diabetes without careful portion control, while its low salt (0.13 g) poses less direct risk for hypertension but the overall high calorie load remains a concern.

Are the reported traces of gluten, milk or soy in Fruit Stick - Pomme a concern for people with those allergies?

Yes; even trace amounts of gluten, milk or soy can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals, so those with these specific allergies should avoid the product.
