Why is Mix Fruits Candies 0% Sugar classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The candy is made from industrial sweeteners, acidulants and synthetic colourants rather than whole food ingredients, which places it in the ultra‑processed NOVA 4 category; it lists E953 (isomalt), E955 (sucralose), E330 (citric acid), and colourants E100, E141, E153, E160c and E163 as additives.

How does the high polyol (isomalt) content affect people with diabetes or those prone to digestive issues?

Isomalt is a sugar‑alcohol that provides minimal impact on blood glucose, making it suitable for diabetics, but consuming large amounts can draw water into the intestine and cause laxative or bloating effects, especially in individuals sensitive to polyols.

Are the trace amounts of milk and soy in this candy a concern for people with allergies?

Yes, the product may contain trace residues of milk and soy, so anyone with a diagnosed allergy to these ingredients should avoid it or check with the manufacturer for confirmation.
