Why is YogoMix natural azucarado con discos, chocos y bolitas classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

The product is labeled NOVA 4 because it combines dairy base with multiple industrial ingredients and additives, including colourants (E100 curcumin, E101 riboflavin, E160 carotenoids, E162 beetroot red), emulsifiers (E414 arabic gum, soy lecithin, sunflower lecithin), gelatine (E428), and citric acid (E330), among others, which are typical of ultra‑processed foods.

How does the high sugar content in this yogurt affect diabetic or hypertensive diets?

With 18 g of sugar per 100 g, the yogurt can cause rapid blood‑glucose spikes, making it unsuitable for diabetic meal plans, while its low salt (0.15 g) is acceptable for hypertension but the overall high sugar still outweighs any benefit for blood‑pressure control.

Is this product suitable for gluten‑free, vegan, or lactose‑intolerant consumers?

No; the formulation contains milk and lactose, gluten from wheat and barley, soy, and animal‑derived gelatin, so it is neither gluten‑free, vegan nor safe for people with lactose intolerance.
