Why does this chickpea stew have a Nutri‑Score of D and which nutrients lower its grade?

The D rating stems from a combination of moderate salt (1.2 g/100 g), relatively high saturated‑fat (2.4 g/100 g) and low protein (3 g/100 g), which together generate more negative points than positive ones in the Nutri‑Score algorithm.

How does the sodium and saturated‑fat content affect a hypertensive or heart‑healthy diet?

The sodium level of 1.2 g per 100 g contributes to daily salt intake and may raise blood pressure, while the saturated‑fat amount of 2.4 g is above the average for plant‑based stews and can increase LDL cholesterol, so the product should be consumed sparingly by those managing hypertension or cardiovascular risk.

Is this chickpea stew suitable for a vegan, gluten‑free, or low‑sugar diet?

Yes, the stew is fully vegan and contains only 2.5 g of sugar per 100 g, making it low‑sugar, but it may carry trace gluten, sesame and soy, so strict gluten‑free or allergen‑avoidance diets should verify tolerance before consumption.
