Why is Maple Flavoured Syrup classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is made from invert sugar syrup and maple syrup, both industrially refined ingredients; although no additives are listed, the manufacturing process places the product in the NOVA 4 ultra‑processed category.

How does the high sugar content of Maple Flavoured Syrup affect a diabetic diet?

With 73 g of sugars per 100 g, the syrup can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, so it should be avoided or used only in very small amounts by people managing diabetes.

Based on its ingredient list, is Maple Flavoured Syrup suitable for vegan, keto, or gluten‑free diets?

The syrup contains only plant‑derived invert sugar and maple syrup, making it vegan and gluten‑free, but its very high carbohydrate content means it is not compatible with a keto regimen.
