Why does Chocolate Perú 100% Ecológico receive a Nutri‑Score of D and which nutrients are responsible for this rating?

The Nutri‑Score calculation penalizes high energy, total fat and saturated fat; this bar provides 634 kcal, 57 g of fat and 34 g of saturated fat per 100 g, generating a large negative point total that outweighs the positive points from its 22 g of fiber and 12 g of protein, resulting in a D grade.

How does the high saturated‑fat content of this chocolate impact people who need to watch their cholesterol or blood pressure?

Saturated fatty acids can raise LDL‑cholesterol and may contribute to increased cardiovascular risk; a 100 g portion delivers 34 g of saturated fat, exceeding recommended daily limits, so individuals with heart disease, high cholesterol, or hypertension should limit intake despite the product’s low sugar and salt.

Is Chocolate Perú 100% Ecológico safe for vegan, gluten‑free, and nut‑allergy diets?

The listed ingredients are plant‑based, making the bar technically vegan and gluten‑free, but the label notes possible cross‑contamination with nuts, milk, gluten and sesame, so it may not be suitable for people with severe nut or gluten allergies.
