Why is Chocolate cookies American style with dark and milk chocolate classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is made from refined wheat flour, sugar, cocoa paste, palm oil and multiple syrups, and it includes additives such as the raising agents E450(i) (disodium diphosphate) and E500(ii) (sodium bicarbonate) as well as the emulsifier lecithin (E322), all of which place it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the high sugar and salt content in this cookie affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

With 32 g of sugar per 100 g, the cookie can cause a rapid rise in blood glucose, making it unsuitable for tight diabetic control, while the 0.9 g of salt adds about 360 mg of sodium, which may contribute to elevated blood pressure for those managing hypertension; therefore, consumption should be limited.

Is the milk ingredient in this product a concern for lactose‑intolerant or allergic consumers?

Yes, the formula contains both skimmed milk powder and whole milk powder, which provide lactose and milk proteins, so it is not safe for individuals with lactose intolerance or milk allergy.
