Why is Kellogg's Tresor classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The cereal is made by extrusion and then coated with a sugary chocolate-hazelnut layer, a process that involves multiple industrial steps, which places it in the ultra-processed NOVA 4 category; its additive list includes sugar, palm, sunflower and rapeseed oils, colourants E160 and E160b, antioxidants E304i and E307, and an emulsifier (sunflower lecithin), as well as natural flavourings.

How does the sugar content in this product affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 26 g of sugar per 100 g, the cereal can cause rapid blood-glucose spikes and is generally unsuitable for people managing diabetes, while its moderate salt level (1.1 g per 100 g) is lower than the average cereal but still contributes to overall sodium intake, making it less ideal for a hypertension-focused diet.

Based on its ingredients, is Kellogg's Tresor suitable for vegan, gluten-free, or nut-free diets?

No; the product contains wheat flour (gluten), dairy derivatives such as whey and skimmed milk powder, and hazelnut paste, so it is not vegan, not gluten-free and not safe for individuals with nut allergies.
