Why is Confiture de fraises classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and which additives does it contain?

The jam includes added sugar, glucose‑fructose syrup and two food‑grade additives: pectin (E440), which acts as a gelling agent, and citric acid (E330), used as an acidifier. The presence of these refined ingredients and sweeteners places it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category.

How does the high sugar content of this jam impact a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 53 g of sugars per 100 g, the jam can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for tight diabetic control, while its very low salt (0.01 g) does not significantly affect hypertension but the overall caloric load should still be considered.

Is Confiture de fraises suitable for a vegan diet and are there any common allergens to watch for?

All listed ingredients are plant‑derived, so the jam is generally considered vegan; however, some sugars can be processed with animal bone char, which may affect strict vegans. The only potential allergen is strawberry, which can trigger reactions in people sensitive to berries.
