Why does Mon biscuit bio citron receive a Nutri-Score of D, and which nutrients are responsible for this rating?

The product gets a Nutri-Score of D because it scores high on negative points for sugar (17.7 g per 100 g) and energy (1840 kJ per 100 g) while offering no positive points for protein, fruit or vegetable content, resulting in a net negative balance that places it in the D grade.

How does the sugar and salt content of this lemon biscuit affect people with diabetes or high blood pressure?

The 17.7 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood glucose spikes, making the biscuit unsuitable for strict diabetic diets, whereas the very low salt level (0.07 g per 100 g) is unlikely to impact hypertension, though overall consumption should still be limited because of the high sugar.

Is the almond powder in this product a concern for consumers with nut allergies?

Yes, the biscuit contains powdered almonds, a tree nut, so individuals with nut allergies should avoid it, and the label also lists eggs as an allergen.

Product Insights

Mon biscuit bio citron is an organic, gluten-free lemon shortbread snack classified in the Sugary snacks group of the French PNNS. It carries a Nutri-Score of D and falls into NOVA group 3, indicating a moderately processed product that is low in salt (0.07 g/100 g) and saturated fat (1.9 g/100 g) but high in added sugars (17.7 g/100 g). While the absence of palm oil and the short, recognisable ingredient list (including rice flour, corn starch and lemon) are positives, the high sugar level, presence of egg and almond allergens, and modest fiber content keep its overall health rating low.
