100rab Chana Sattu
Published · Last updated
A realistic serve of 100rab Chana Sattu (30 g, typical serve estimate) has 117 kcal, 6.6 g protein, 18.6 g carbohydrate, 1.6 g fat and 3 mg sodium. Per 100 g it has 389 kcal, 22.2 g protein, 62.1 g carbohydrate, 5.3 g fat and 11 mg sodium.
100rab Chana Sattu is a single-ingredient flour of roasted gram, used for cooling drinks, parathas and laddoos. It scores [L]DA2: nutrition is low because only protein earns credit, ingredients are clean but lose points for a high-fibre claim the panel does not back, and risk is low. A handy staple for everyday drinks and dough, but not a source of fibre.

Why 100rab Chana Sattu scores [L]DA2

Low nutrient density

- Vitamins and minerals
- None declared
- Energy
- 389 kcal
01 Nutrition density: why D
Protein is 22.16 g per 100 g, about 23% of the calories, and it is the only thing that earns credit. It comes from one source, roasted gram flour.
No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared, so nothing else lifts the grade. The listing text mentions fibre and minerals, but the panel gives no figures for them.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.
Clean, minimally processed

- Additives

- None
02 Ingredient integrity: why A
The list is a single ingredient, 100% roasted gram flour, with no additives, no sweetener and no oil. That earns the top ingredient grade.
The back of the pack says sattu's high fibre aids fullness, weight management and blood sugar, yet the panel declares no fibre. That hollow claim costs ingredient points and sets the [L] flag.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.
Low risk
- Sodium
- 11 mg
03 Load risk: why 2
Energy is the main driver: 389 kcal per 100 g sets the risk number at 2. Free sugar is 0 g and sodium is 11 mg per 100 g, so they add almost nothing.
No sugar, saturated fat or trans fat enters the score, so the risk stays low.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does 100rab Chana Sattu live up to its claims?

- No vitamins or minerals are declared on the panel.
What to know about 100rab Chana Sattu
100% roasted gram flour, but no fibre declared
100rab Chana Sattu is a 500 g pack of ground roasted gram (desi chana), and nothing else: the label reads 100% roasted gram flour. It is the traditional Ballia-style sattu, bought to mix into a cooling summer drink, knead into paratha dough or roll into laddoos.
What you get is a protein-rich flour: 22.16 g protein, 62.12 g carbohydrate and 5.29 g fat in 100 g, which comes to 389 kcal. Sodium is only 11 mg and no sugar is added. The panel prints no fibre, no vitamins and no minerals, and no serve size.
The name and the 100% claim are accurate. The back of the pack, though, says sattu's high fibre promotes fullness and helps weight management, and the panel declares no fibre at all. That unsupported claim is what sets the [L] flag. CleanPlate scores it [L]DA2.
