Why is Lala Lactose‑Free Milk classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is deemed ultra‑processed because it undergoes industrial UHT treatment, includes an added lactase enzyme to break down lactose, and is fortified with vitamins A and D; no other food additives are listed.

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

With 4.8 g of sugar and 0.12 g of salt per 100 g, the milk is low in both compared to many dairy drinks, making it a relatively safe choice for diabetics and people monitoring blood pressure, though portion sizes should still be considered because it does contain carbohydrates.

Is the milk protein in Lala Lactose‑Free Milk a concern for people with milk allergy?

Yes, the product contains cow’s milk protein, which is a known allergen; individuals with a milk allergy should avoid it despite the lactose‑free labeling.
