Why does Hacendado lactose‑free semi‑skimmed milk receive a Nutri‑Score of B instead of A?

The milk already has low fat, saturated fat, sugar and salt, but its energy content (44 kcal) and protein level (3 g) are moderate; only products with very low energy and higher protein can achieve the top Nutri‑Score A, so it settles at B.

How suitable is this lactose‑free milk for people with diabetes or high blood pressure?

With 4.6 g of sugars and 0.13 g of salt per 100 g, the product is well below average milk levels, making it a relatively safe choice for diabetics and hypertensive individuals, though portion control remains important.

Does the added lactase enzyme make this product safe for individuals with milk protein allergy?

No; the lactase only breaks down lactose, while the milk itself still contains the proteins that trigger milk allergies, so the product remains unsuitable for those with a milk protein allergy.
