Why is Protein Granola Chocolate & Hazelnuts classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and which additives does it contain?

It is classified as NOVA 4 because the formula relies on refined ingredients such as a thickener (polydextrose), added sweeteners (maltitol and stevia), emulsifiers, flavorings and an antioxidant, all of which are industrially processed; the specific additives listed are E1200 (polydextrose), E306 (tocopherol-rich extract), E322 (lecithins), E965 (maltitol) and E960a (stevia glycosides).

Is this granola suitable for vegan, keto, halal or gluten-free diets?

The product contains only plant-derived ingredients, so it is free from animal meat or dairy, but some components such as lecithin have an uncertain vegan status and the label does not certify vegan compliance; its carbohydrate content from oats and added sweeteners makes it unsuitable for a strict keto diet; there are no pork-derived ingredients, so it can be considered halal for most consumers, although certification is not provided; oats may carry gluten cross-contamination and the product is not labeled gluten-free, so it is not recommended for those with celiac disease.

Can people with soy or nut allergies safely consume this product?

No - the granola contains soy protein isolate as a primary protein source and toasted hazelnut pieces, and the label also warns of possible traces of peanuts, milk, egg and sulfites, so it is not safe for individuals allergic to soy or tree nuts.
