Why does this medium‑spicy mustard receive a Nutri‑Score of D, and which nutrients are responsible for the low rating?

The Nutri‑Score algorithm assigns many negative points for the 2.9 g of salt per 100 g (14 points) and modest points for energy, while positive points are limited to 2 for fiber and none for fruit/vegetable content, resulting in a total score of 13 and a grade of D.

How does the salt content in this mustard affect a hypertensive or low‑sodium diet?

With 2.9 g of salt per 100 g, the mustard supplies more than half of the recommended daily maximum of 5 g, so people managing hypertension or following a low‑sodium diet should use it sparingly.

Is mustard seed in this product a concern for people with mustard allergy, and is the product suitable for a vegan diet?

Yes, mustard seed is listed as an ingredient and is a known allergen, so it should be avoided by those with mustard allergy. All ingredients are plant‑based, making the product fully vegan.
