Why is Allumettes végétales et gourmandes classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The sticks are made from isolated pea protein, concentrated sweet‑potato, sunflower oil and natural flavorings that undergo extensive industrial processing, which places them in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category. The ingredient list shows no artificial flavors, colors or preservatives, and the product is labeled with zero additives.

How does the salt content of this product affect a hypertensive diet?

With 2 g of salt per 100 g, a typical serving provides about 40 % of the recommended daily sodium limit (5 g). Regular consumption can therefore elevate blood pressure, so individuals with hypertension should limit portions or choose lower‑salt alternatives.

Is this product suitable for vegan and gluten‑free diets?

Yes, the product is certified vegan and contains no animal‑derived ingredients. It is formulated without gluten, but traces of gluten are listed, so it is safe for most vegans but people with celiac disease should verify the risk of cross‑contamination.
