Why is Cracker Salati classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The snack uses refined wheat and barley flours, added sunflower oil, a sourdough starter, brewer's yeast and a natural olive flavor, all of which are industrially processed ingredients; the only listed additive is sodium carbonate (E500 ii), a leavening agent that contributes to its ultra‑processed status.

How does the sugar and salt content of Cracker Salati affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 2.3 g of sugars per 100 g, the crackers have minimal impact on blood‑glucose levels, making them relatively safe for diabetics in moderation, but the 1.9 g of salt is fairly high for a snack and can raise blood pressure, so people with hypertension should limit their portion.

Is Cracker Salati suitable for vegan, gluten‑free, or other strict dietary regimes?

The product contains wheat flour and barley malt flour, which provide gluten, so it is not gluten‑free; although the base ingredients are plant‑based, the natural olive flavor is only marked "maybe vegan," and the presence of gluten makes it unsuitable for strict vegan or gluten‑free diets.
