Why is the 75% cocoa chocolate bar with caramel and sea salt classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It receives a NOVA 4 rating because it contains refined cane sugar, added caramel flavor, and an emulsifier; the only listed additive is sunflower lecithin (E322), which is used to improve texture and stability.

How do the sugar and saturated‑fat levels in this chocolate bar affect people with diabetes or high blood pressure?

The bar provides 25 g of sugar per 100 g, which can raise blood glucose and should be limited in diabetic diets, while its very high saturated‑fat content (26 g) may contribute to elevated cholesterol and should be consumed cautiously by individuals with hypertension or cardiovascular risk.

Are there any milk traces in this chocolate bar, and is it safe for people with dairy allergies?

The label indicates possible traces of milk (along with gluten, nuts and peanuts), so the product is not guaranteed milk‑free and may pose a risk for people with diagnosed dairy allergies or severe lactose intolerance.
