Why is Grober Linsenaufstrich classified as a moderately processed food (NOVA 3) and does it contain any additives?

The product is made from whole ingredients such as lentils, vegetables, sunflower oil and spices, and it undergoes only basic cooking and mixing steps, which places it in NOVA 3; according to the label it contains zero listed additives.

How might the sugar and salt levels in this lentil spread affect people with diabetes or high blood pressure?

With 3 g of sugars and 1.7 g of salt per 100 g, the spread adds modest sugar but a relatively high amount of sodium, so it can modestly raise blood glucose and may exceed recommended sodium limits for hypertensive individuals if consumed in large portions.

Is this spread compatible with vegan, keto, halal and gluten‑free diets?

All ingredients are plant‑based and certified organic, making it fully vegan and gluten‑free; however, the carbohydrate content (10 g per 100 g) makes it unsuitable for a strict keto diet, and while the components are permissible in halal cuisine, the product does not carry an official halal certification.
