Why is Fette biscottate integrali farro classified as a moderately processed food (NOVA 3) and what additives does it contain?

The rusk is made from whole‑grain spelt flour, yeast, sunflower oil, wheat gluten and salt, which places it in NOVA group 3 for processed foods; the only listed additive is ascorbic acid (E300), a flour‑treatment agent used as a preservative‑free antioxidant.

How do the sugar and salt levels in this rusk affect diabetic or hypertensive diets?

With only 1.5 g of sugar per 100 g, the rusk is low‑sugar and therefore suitable for a diabetic diet, while its 1.1 g of salt is moderate but considerably lower than the average for rusks, making it a better choice for those monitoring blood pressure.

Is this rusk appropriate for vegan, gluten‑free, or nut‑allergy diets?

The product is certified vegan and contains no animal‑derived ingredients, but it includes wheat gluten so it is not gluten‑free, and it may contain trace amounts of nuts, milk, eggs and sesame, which could trigger allergies for sensitive individuals.
