Why is Sgranocchi Rustici classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is placed in NOVA group 3 because it is made from refined wheat flour, added salt, yeast and a small amount of antioxidant rosemary extract (E392). These ingredients require industrial processing but the item does not contain the multiple additives typical of ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) foods.

How does the salt content in this product affect a hypertensive diet?

Sgranocchi Rustici contain 1.6 g of salt per 100 g, which is moderate and lower than the average snack’s 3.9 g, but it still contributes to daily sodium intake. People with hypertension should account for this amount when planning their total daily salt consumption.

Is the wheat gluten in Sgranocchi Rustici a problem for people with celiac disease?

Yes. The snack includes wheat flour, barley and rye, all of which contain gluten, so it is not safe for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
