Why is Zumo de Melocotón classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is deemed ultra‑processed because the formulation includes added sweeteners (sucralose E955 and acesulfame‑K E950), an acidulant (citric acid E330) and vitamin C, in addition to the peach puree, which goes beyond simple fruit juice preparation.

How does the sugar and salt content of this peach nectar affect people with diabetes or hypertension?

The drink provides 4.8 g of sugars per 100 ml, a moderate amount that adds to daily carbohydrate intake and requires portion control for diabetics, while its salt level is only 0.01 g per 100 ml, which is negligible for hypertension management.

Is Zumo de Melocotón suitable for vegan, keto, halal, or gluten‑free diets?

All ingredients are plant‑based and the product is labelled vegan and vegetarian, making it suitable for vegan and gluten‑free diets; however, the presence of added sugars and sweeteners means it is not keto‑friendly, and halal certification is not provided, so consumers should verify its status.
