Why is sauce crudités nature classified as ultra-processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is deemed ultra‑processed because it is a packaged emulsion made from refined rapeseed oil, vinegar, egg yolk, milk proteins, modified starch and a suite of additives such as tartaric acid (E334), antioxidant (E385), xanthan gum (E415) and flavorings (E14xx), which are typical of industrial food formulations.

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

The low sugar level (2 g per 100 ml) has minimal impact on blood‑glucose and is generally safe for diabetics, but the relatively high salt amount (1.7 g per 100 ml) can raise blood pressure, so people with hypertension should use the sauce sparingly.

Is sauce crudités nature suitable for vegans, and which allergens are present?

No, the product is not vegan because it contains egg yolk and milk proteins, and it lists eggs and milk as the allergens that consumers with those sensitivities should avoid.
