Nutritional Summary
The product receives a very poor rating primarily due to its extremely high sodium content. A single 7g serving contains 858.90 mg of sodium, which constitutes over 42% of the FSSAI's recommended daily intake (2000 mg). While the product is low in fat, sugar, and calories, the excessive sodium level makes it unhealthy for regular consumption, especially for individuals with hypertension or cardiovascular concerns. Salt is the first ingredient listed, confirming its high concentration.

Additive Analysis
Based on the declared ingredients and marketing claims, the product is free from common artificial additives, colors, and preservatives. The ingredients are natural spices and seasonings. From an additive perspective, the product is considered safe under FSSAI standards. The primary health concern is not from additives but from the high sodium content.

Marketing Claims
The claims 'Trans-Fat Free', 'Vegan', 'No Artificial Colour', and 'Zero Preservatives' appear accurate based on the nutritional panel and ingredients. However, the claim '100% Spice' is questionable, as the first ingredient is salt and the third is sugar, which are seasonings, not technically spices. The term 'No Nasties' is a vague marketing term but seems to refer to the absence of artificial additives, which is consistent with the label.
