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

The product is labeled NOVA 3 because it undergoes manufacturing steps such as cooking, seasoning and canning, but it does not contain listed food additives; the only processing‑related note is a possible presence of palm‑oil residues, which the label flags as "may contain palm oil".

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

With 0.92 g of salt per 100 g, the ravioli contributes a moderate amount of sodium; regular consumption could add up to a significant portion of the recommended daily limit for people managing high blood pressure, so it should be eaten in moderation and balanced with low‑salt foods.

Is the celery in Ravioli Bolognese a concern for people with a celery allergy?

Yes, the ingredient list includes celery, which is a known allergen; individuals with a celery allergy should avoid this product to prevent allergic reactions.
