Why is Chocolate & Hazelnut Vitamin & Protein Riegel classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The bar contains multiple industrial ingredients such as the sweeteners maltitol and sucralose, the humectant glycerol, the fiber polydextrose (E1200), and the emulsifier lecithins (E322), which together place it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the sugar and salt content in this bar affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

Although no sugar is added, the product still supplies 2.75 g of natural sugars per 100 g, which can raise blood glucose levels, and its 0.5 g of salt per 100 g is slightly above the average snack, so it should be consumed in moderation by people managing diabetes or high blood pressure.

Is the milk protein in this bar a concern for people with dairy allergies?

Yes, the bar lists milk proteins and whole milk powder among its ingredients, making it unsuitable for anyone with a dairy allergy or lactose intolerance.
