Why is tikka masala vegetables and coconut classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

The product is rated NOVA 3 because its ingredients are cooked, blended and packaged, involving processing steps such as extracting coconut milk and concentrating tomatoes, yet it does not contain any listed additives; all components are organic and the ingredient list is free of additives.

How does the sodium content of this meal affect a hypertensive diet?

With 0.67 g of salt per 100 g, the meal contributes a moderate amount of sodium; a typical 250 g serving would provide about 1.7 g of salt, which is roughly 30 % of the daily recommended limit for people with hypertension, so portion control is advisable.

Is the coconut milk in this dish a concern for people with coconut allergy?

Yes, coconut milk is derived from coconut, a known tree‑nut allergen; individuals with a coconut allergy should avoid this product, even though it is otherwise vegan, organic and free of gluten.
