Why is boisson aux amandes classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is made from ground almonds blended with water and then subjected to pasteurisation, fortification, and the addition of stabilisers such as carrageenan or gellan gum, emulsifiers and vitamins; the combination of these processed ingredients and the packaging process places it in the NOVA 4 ultra‑processed category.

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

With 2.9 g of sugars and 0.13 g of salt per 100 g, the drink contributes modest carbs and a low sodium amount, making it acceptable in limited quantities for diabetic or hypertensive individuals but it should still be counted toward daily sugar and salt limits.

Is the almond ingredient in this drink a concern for people with nut allergies?

Yes, the primary ingredient is almond, a tree‑nut, so anyone allergic to almonds or other nuts should avoid this beverage.
