Why is Noir 85% classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

Noir 85% is placed in a higher processing category because it includes added cane sugar and cocoa butter to the cocoa paste, but it contains no listed food additives, as indicated by an additive count of zero.

How does the sugar/salt content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 14 g of sugar per 100 g, the bar can raise blood glucose levels and should be consumed in moderation by people with diabetes, while its low salt content (0.1 g) makes it relatively safe for hypertensive individuals.

Is the milk trace in this product a concern for lactose‑intolerant individuals?
