Question 1

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

Accepted Answer

Soya Vanille is labeled NOVA 4 because its ingredient list includes several industrially formulated components beyond the basic soy base. In addition to water and soybeans, the drink contains added sugar, calcium carbonate, vanilla flavorings, sea salt, an acidity regulator (potassium phosphate), carrot extract, a stabiliser (gellan), and fortified vitamins (B2, B12, D2). These additives, along with the processing required to create a smooth, shelf‑stable beverage, place it in the ultra‑processed category.

Question 2

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

Accepted Answer

Each 100 ml serving provides 6.7 g of sugar, which can raise blood glucose levels and should be accounted for within the total daily carbohydrate allowance of a diabetic diet. The 0.14 g of salt (approximately 56 mg sodium) contributes to overall sodium intake; while modest, regular consumption can add up and may be a concern for people managing hypertension. Moderation and pairing with low‑sugar, low‑salt foods can help mitigate these impacts.

Question 3

Is the soy in this product a concern for people with soy allergy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Soy is the primary protein source in the drink and is explicitly listed as an allergen. People who are allergic to soybeans should avoid this beverage, even though it is marketed as vegan, gluten‑free and lactose‑free, because the soy protein can trigger allergic reactions.
