Why is Bio-Cottage-Cheese Natur classified as processed (NOVA 3) and what specific additives does it contain?

It is classified as NOVA 3 because it is made by combining milk, cream, microbial rennet and lactic cultures, which involves processing but no industrial additives; the ingredient list shows zero additives, so none are present.

How does the sugar and salt content in Bio-Cottage-Cheese Natur affect diabetic or hypertensive diets?

With only 2.6 g of sugars per 100 g, the cheese has a minimal impact on blood glucose and can fit into a diabetic meal plan, but its 0.75 g of salt per 100 g is moderate and may contribute to sodium intake, so hypertensive individuals should consume it in limited portions.

Is the milk in Bio-Cottage-Cheese Natur a concern for people with milk allergy?

Yes; milk is the primary ingredient (about 62 % of the formulation) and the product is labeled with a milk allergen warning, so it should be avoided by anyone who is allergic to milk.
