Why is Milka Au Lait du Pays Alpin classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The bar is made from refined sugar, cocoa butter, cocoa paste, milk powder, whey powder, butterfat, hazelnut paste, flavorings and soy lecithin, all of which undergo multiple industrial processing steps, giving it a NOVA 4 status. The only listed additive is the emulsifier E322 (soy lecithin).

How does the sugar and saturated fat content in Milka Au Lait du Pays Alpin affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 55 g of sugar per 100 g, the product can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for tight glycemic control in diabetes. The 19 g of saturated fat per 100 g can raise LDL cholesterol, which is a concern for cardiovascular health, especially for people managing hypertension.

Is the hazelnut paste in Milka Au Lait du Pays Alpin a concern for people with nut allergies?

Hazelnut paste is present at about 0.35 % of the bar, and hazelnuts are a tree nut, so the product must be avoided by anyone with a hazelnut or broader nut allergy. The label also highlights milk and soy allergens.
