Why is Bio-Knusperriegel - Nussmix classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product falls into NOVA group 3 because it is a formulated snack that combines several agricultural ingredients with added sugar and honey, but it does not contain any industrial additives or preservatives; the additive count is zero.

How does the sugar content of this snack bar affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 20 g of sugars per 100 g, the bar can cause a noticeable rise in blood glucose, which may be problematic for people with diabetes, while its very low salt (0.01 g) is unlikely to impact hypertension, though the overall calorie density should be considered.

Are the peanuts in this bar a concern for people with nut allergies, and how are they sourced?

Peanuts make up 38 % of the bar and are clearly listed as an allergen, so anyone with a peanut allergy should avoid the product; the peanuts are sourced from non‑EU suppliers and are certified organic under the EU organic label.
