Why is GRISSINI Torinesi classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The breadsticks are made from refined wheat flour, sunflower oil, malt extract, salt, yeast and flavorings, which are combined in a manufacturing process that alters the original ingredients; the only listed additive is the flavoring (arômes), so the product meets the criteria for an ultra‑processed NOVA 4 item.

How does the salt content in GRISSINI Torinesi affect a hypertensive diet?

At 2.5 g of salt per 100 g, the breadsticks contribute a noticeable amount of sodium, and regular consumption could push daily sodium intake above recommended limits for people managing high blood pressure, so they should be eaten sparingly in a hypertensive diet.

Is GRISSINI Torinesi suitable for vegan or gluten‑free diets?

All listed ingredients are plant‑based, making the product technically vegan, but it contains wheat flour and therefore gluten, so it is not appropriate for gluten‑free diets.
