Why does Salty Soy Sauce have a Nutri-Score of E, and which nutrients are responsible for this low rating?

The low score is driven almost entirely by its very high salt content, which adds the maximum 20 negative points; with negligible fat, sugar and no positive points such as fruit, vegetables or fiber, the overall Nutri-Score drops to E.

How does the high salt content in this soy sauce affect a hypertensive or heart-healthy diet?

At 17.2 g of salt per 100 ml, a single serving provides far more than the recommended daily limit of 5-6 g, so people with high blood pressure or cardiovascular concerns should use it sparingly or choose a low-salt alternative.

Is the wheat in this soy sauce a concern for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease?

Yes, the sauce includes wheat as an ingredient, making it a source of gluten and unsuitable for those who need to avoid gluten.
