Why is Sauce Andalouse classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is labeled NOVA 4 because its formulation combines refined oil, egg yolk, mustard paste and multiple industrial additives such as the colorant E160c (paprika extract), preservative E202, acidity regulator E330 (citric acid) and antioxidant E392 (rosemary extract), all of which indicate a high degree of processing.

How does the salt content in Sauce Andalouse affect a hypertensive diet?

With roughly 2 g of salt per 100 ml, the sauce contributes a significant portion of the recommended daily sodium limit; regular consumption can raise blood pressure and should be limited for people managing hypertension.

Is Sauce Andalouse suitable for vegan, keto, or gluten‑free diets?

The sauce is not vegan because it contains egg yolk, and it is not certified gluten‑free despite lacking obvious gluten ingredients, while its very high fat and low carbohydrate profile makes it compatible with a keto approach, though the high salt level may be a concern.
