Why is Protein yogurt strawberry classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is labeled NOVA 4 because it includes several industrially manufactured ingredients that are not used in traditional home-made yogurts, such as concentrated grape-juice, waxy maize starch, carrot concentrate, natural flavouring, a gelling agent (pectin, E440), stevia glycosides (E960a) as a sweetener, and lactase enzyme; these processed components give the product its ultra-processed status.

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

With 6.3 g of sugar and 0.12 g of salt per 100 g, the yogurt provides less sugar and considerably less sodium than the typical dairy dessert, making it a more suitable option for people managing blood-glucose or blood-pressure, but the sugar still contributes to total carbohydrate intake and should be counted within daily limits.

Is the lactase enzyme added to this yogurt a concern for people with a milk allergy?

The lactase enzyme only breaks down lactose; the product still contains milk-derived yogurt, so it remains a source of milk protein and will trigger reactions in individuals with a true milk allergy, while it is helpful for those who are merely lactose intolerant.
