Why is Cookies Chocolat & Noisettes classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is made from refined wheat flour, added cane sugar, processed dark chocolate chips, non‑hydrogenated palm oil and includes emulsifier sunflower lecithin (E322) and a raising agent ammonium carbonate (E503), all of which are hallmarks of ultra‑processed foods, placing it in NOVA 4.

How does the sugar and salt content in Cookies Chocolat & Noisettes affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 29 g of sugar per 100 g, the cookies can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes and are not recommended for people managing diabetes; the salt level of 0.32 g is relatively low, so it is less of a concern for hypertension but the overall high fat and sugar still make it a poor choice for heart‑healthy diets.

Is the hazelnut ingredient in Cookies Chocolat & Noisettes a concern for people with nut allergies?

Yes, the product contains 9 % hazelnuts, a tree‑nut allergen, and it also lists possible traces of peanuts, soy, milk and eggs, so anyone with nut or related allergies should avoid these cookies.
