Why is Freche Brezeln classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific additive does it contain?

The pretzels are made from wheat, spelt, chickpea flours and rapeseed oil, then baked and dipped in a sodium‑hydroxide lye solution; this processing places them in NOVA 3, and the only listed additive is E524 (sodium hydroxide) used for the lye.

How does the salt content in Freche Brezeln compare to recommended limits for infants?

At 2.08 g of salt per 100 g, the pretzels contain roughly ten times the maximum daily salt intake advised for infants under six months (about 0.2 g), so they should be offered only occasionally and in small portions.

Can babies with gluten intolerance safely eat Freche Brezeln?

No; the main ingredient is wheat flour and the product is labeled with a gluten allergen, making it unsuitable for children with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
