Why is Alaska sockeye wildlachs classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product undergoes smoking, is salted and includes sodium lactate (E325) as a acidity regulator and beech‑wood smoke for flavor, all of which are processed ingredients that place it in NOVA group 4.

How does the salt content in this smoked salmon affect a hypertensive diet?

At 3.45 g of salt per 100 g, the product provides about 60 % of the recommended daily maximum, which can raise blood pressure and should be consumed sparingly by people monitoring sodium intake.

Is this product suitable for vegan, keto, or gluten‑free diets?

It is not vegan or vegetarian because it contains fish, but it is naturally gluten‑free and fits a keto diet thanks to its low carbohydrate (0.9 g) and high protein (20 g) profile.
