Why is La Nostra Limonata classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The NOVA system labels foods that are formulated primarily from industrial ingredients, contain added sugars, flavorings, or CO₂ as ultra‑processed; La Nostra Limonata includes carbonated water, lemon and orange juice concentrates, added sugar, natural flavoring and carbon dioxide (E290), which places it in group 4.

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

With 16.1 g of sugars per 100 ml, the drink can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for diabetic meal plans, and although it contains no salt, the high sugar load can contribute to overall calorie excess, which may indirectly impact blood‑pressure management.

Is the lemon juice concentrate in La Nostra Limonata a concern for people with citrus allergies?

Yes, the product lists lemon juice from concentrate (12 %) as an ingredient, so individuals with citrus allergies should avoid it as the juice can trigger allergic reactions.
