Why does this butter receive a Nutri‑Score of E, and which nutrients are responsible for lowering its grade?

The Nutri‑Score algorithm penalises high energy, total fat and especially saturated fat while rewarding protein, fiber and fruit/vegetable content. This butter provides 744 kcal, 82 g fat (55 g saturated) per 100 g, has only 0.6 g protein and no fiber or fruit‑vegetable fraction, resulting in the lowest possible score and an E grade.

How does the high saturated‑fat content of this butter affect heart health or a low‑cholesterol diet?

Saturated fat raises LDL‑cholesterol levels, which can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease; therefore, consuming this butter frequently may be unsuitable for individuals following a heart‑healthy or low‑cholesterol diet.

Is this butter suitable for keto, vegan, or gluten‑free diets?

The butter is keto‑friendly because it is very low in carbs and high in fat, it is naturally gluten‑free, but it is not vegan since it is derived from milk and contains the milk allergen.
