Why is Danao peach apricot classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

Because it contains added sugar, fruit‑juice concentrate, enriched skimmed milk and a blend of food‑industry additives, including cellulose gum (E466), guar gum (E412), citric acid (E330), natural beta‑carotene colour (E160a i) and nature‑identical flavours, its formulation meets the criteria for a NOVA 4 ultra‑processed product.

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

With 10 g of sugar per 100 g (20 g per 200 ml serving), the drink can raise blood glucose levels, making it unsuitable for strict diabetic meal plans, and while it contains no added salt, the high sugar load may indirectly influence blood pressure by contributing to weight gain.

Is the skimmed milk in this product a concern for lactose‑intolerant or dairy‑allergic consumers?

Yes; the beverage includes 15 % enriched skimmed milk, providing dairy proteins and lactose, so it is not suitable for individuals with lactose intolerance or a milk allergy.
