Why does Kombucha grenade receive a Nutri‑Score of C despite its low sugar and fat content?

The Nutri‑Score algorithm rewards protein, fiber and fruit/vegetable content, which are all very low in this beverage, and it penalises added sugars; the modest sugar level (3.5 g per 100 ml) and the lack of protein or fiber keep the overall score at C.

How does the sugar content of Kombucha grenade affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

At 3.5 g of sugar per 100 ml, the drink adds a modest amount of carbohydrate that can fit into a controlled‑carb plan, but people managing diabetes should count it toward their daily sugar allowance, and although it contains no added salt, it should still be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

Is Kombucha grenade suitable for vegan or keto diets?

All plant‑derived ingredients are vegan, but the culture used for fermentation is listed as “maybe” vegan, and the added sugar and fruit purees increase the carbohydrate load, making it unsuitable for a strict keto regimen while still acceptable for most vegan diets.
