Why is Amora Moutarde Douce classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

Because the formulation includes added sugar, a stabiliser (xanthan gum, E415), an acidifier (citric acid, E330) and a preservative (potassium disulphite, E224), which are characteristic of ultra‑processed foods, giving it a NOVA 4 status.

How does the sugar and salt content in this sweet mustard affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With 4.4 g of sugar and 4.4 g of salt per 100 g, the product provides a moderate amount of sugar that can raise blood glucose levels and a relatively high salt level that may increase blood pressure, so it should be used sparingly by people managing diabetes or hypertension.

Is the mustard ingredient in this product a concern for people with mustard allergy or sulfite sensitivity?

Yes, mustard is listed as an allergen and can trigger reactions in sensitive individuals, and the presence of potassium disulphite also poses a risk for those who are intolerant to sulfites.
