Why is Bifrutas Tropical classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The drink is labelled NOVA 4 because it is made from multiple processed ingredients such as concentrated fruit juices, added sugar, a natural flavouring, carrot extract, vegetable fibers and vitamin C, all of which require industrial processing and formulation steps beyond simple preparation.

How does the sugar content in Bifrutas Tropical affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 7.5 g of sugar per 100 ml, the beverage contributes a moderate amount of simple carbohydrates that can raise blood glucose levels, so people with diabetes should limit its portion size, while its low sodium makes it less of a concern for hypertension.

Is the skimmed milk in Bifrutas Tropical a concern for people with lactose intolerance or milk allergy?

Yes, the product contains 15 % skimmed milk, which provides both milk proteins that trigger allergic reactions and lactose that can cause symptoms in individuals who are lactose intolerant.
