The puree is made by cooking and straining fresh tomatoes, adding salt and citric acid to enhance flavor and preserve freshness; this level of handling places it in NOVA group 3, and the only additive listed is citric acid (E330), used as an acidity regulator.

How does the sugar content of this tomato purée affect a diabetic diet?

With 4 g of sugars per 100 g, the puree contributes a moderate amount of carbohydrates; diabetics can include it in a balanced meal plan but should count the sugars toward their daily carbohydrate allowance and combine it with low‑glycaemic foods.
