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

The Nutri‑Score of D is driven primarily by its very high sugar content (72 g per 100 g), which yields the maximum negative points for sugars; low fat and low salt offer only a few positive points, and the modest fiber (6.8 g) cannot offset the sugar penalty, resulting in an overall low grade.

How does the high sugar level in sweetened dried cranberries affect people managing diabetes or high blood pressure?

The 72 g of sugar per 100 g can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making the snack unsuitable for tight diabetic control, while the low salt (0.02 g) is not problematic for hypertension, but the overall high sugar still contributes to excess calorie intake and may affect cardiovascular health.

Does the presence of trace amounts of gluten, soy, sesame, peanuts, and tree nuts make this snack unsafe for individuals with those food allergies?

Yes – the label warns of possible cross‑contamination with wheat, rye, barley, oats, spelt, soy, sesame, peanuts and all tree nuts, so anyone allergic to these ingredients should avoid the product or seek an allergen‑free alternative.
