Why is Mousse chocolat noir classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The mousse uses refined sugar, cocoa paste, soy‑derived lecithin (E322) and a natural vanilla flavor, all of which are industrially processed ingredients; the presence of these processed components, together with the need for emulsification, places the product in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the high sugar and saturated‑fat content of this mousse affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

The 21 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, which is problematic for diabetics, while the 13 g of saturated fat may raise LDL cholesterol and contribute to blood‑pressure elevation, making the mousse a poor choice for hypertensive individuals.

Is the egg white ingredient in this mousse a concern for individuals with egg allergy?

Yes. Egg white, which makes up 23 % of the product, is a declared allergen, so anyone with an egg allergy should avoid this mousse.
