Why is Soupe Miso Tofu Champignon Shiitake classified as a processed food (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

The soup is made from a miso paste, dehydrated vegetables and other ingredients that are cooked, dried and later reconstituted, which places it in NOVA 3; the only listed additive is calcium sulfate (E516) used as a stabilizer.

How does the sugar and salt content of this soup affect people with diabetes or high blood pressure?

With only 1.2 g of sugar per 100 g, the product is low‑carbohydrate and unlikely to cause a rapid glucose rise, but the 1.2 g of salt (about 0.48 g sodium) adds to daily sodium intake and should be limited by those managing hypertension.

Is the dried bonite powder in this soup a concern for consumers with fish allergies?

Yes, the soup contains bonite powder, a dried fish ingredient, which is a declared allergen and should be avoided by anyone with a fish allergy.
