Discover the new Nutri-Score!
The computation of the Nutri-Score is evolving to provide better recommendations based on the latest scientific evidence.
Main improvements:
- Better score for some fatty fish and oils rich in good fats
- Better score for whole products rich in fiber
- Worse score for products containing a lot of salt or sugar
- Worse score for red meat (compared to poultry)
-
What is the Nutri-Score?
The Nutri-Score is a logo on the overall nutritional quality of products.
The score from A to E is calculated based on nutrients and foods to favor (proteins, fiber, fruits, vegetables and legumes ...) and nutrients to limit (calories, saturated fat, sugars, salt). The score is calculated from the data of the nutrition facts table and the composition data (fruits, vegetables and legumes).
Negative points: 4/54
-
Energy
0/10 points (0kJ)
Energy intakes above energy requirements are associated with increased risks of weight gain, overweight, obesity, and consequently risk of diet-related chronic diseases.
-
Sugar
0/10 points (0g)
A high consumption of sugar can cause weight gain and tooth decay. It also augments the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardio-vascular diseases.
-
Saturated fat
0/10 points (0g)
A high consumption of fat, especially saturated fats, can raise cholesterol, which increases the risk of heart diseases.
-
Salt
0/20 points (0.09g)
A high consumption of salt (or sodium) can cause raised blood pressure, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
-
Non-nutritive sweeteners
4/4 points (2 sweeteners)
Non-nutritive sweeteners may not confer any long-term benefit in reducing body fat in adults or children. There may be potential undesirable effects from long-term use of non-nutritive sweeteners, such as an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases in adults.
Positive points: 0/18
-
Proteins
0/7 points (0g)
Foods that are rich in proteins are usually rich in calcium or iron which are essential minerals with numerous health benefits.
-
Fiber
0/5 points (unknown)
Consuming foods rich in fiber (especially whole grain foods) reduces the risks of aerodigestive cancers, cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes.
-
Fruits, vegetables and legumes
0/6 points (0%)
Consuming foods rich in fruits, vegetables and legumes reduces the risks of aerodigestive cancers, cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes.

Ultra-processed foods
5 ultra-processing markers
-
Limit ultra-processed foods
Limiting ultra-processed foods reduces the risk of noncommunicable chronic diseases
Several studies have found that a lower consumption of ultra-processed foods is associated with a reduced risk of noncommunicable chronic diseases, such as obesity, hypertension and diabetes.
Source: Ultra-processed foods increase noncommunicable chronic disease risk
Elements that indicate the product is in the 4 - Ultra processed food and drink products group:
- Additive: E440 - Pectins
- Additive: E452 - Polyphosphates
- Additive: E950 - Acesulfame k
- Additive: E951 - Aspartame
- Ingredient: Flavouring
Food products are classified into 4 groups according to their degree of processing:
- Unprocessed or minimally processed foods
- Processed culinary ingredients
- Processed foods
- Ultra-processed foods
The determination of the group is based on the category of the product and on the ingredients it contains.
-
Additives
-
E202 - Potassium sorbate
Potassium sorbate (E202) is a synthetic food preservative commonly used to extend the shelf life of various food products.
It works by inhibiting the growth of molds, yeast, and some bacteria, preventing spoilage. When added to foods, it helps maintain their freshness and quality.
Some studies have shown that when combined with nitrites, potassium sorbate have genotoxic activity in vitro. However, potassium sorbate is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by regulatory authorities.
-
E330 - Citric acid
Citric acid is a natural organic acid found in citrus fruits such as lemons, oranges, and limes.
It is widely used in the food industry as a flavor enhancer, acidulant, and preservative due to its tart and refreshing taste.
Citric acid is safe for consumption when used in moderation and is considered a generally recognized as safe (GRAS) food additive by regulatory agencies worldwide.
-
E338 - Phosphoric acid
Phosphoric acid: Phosphoric acid -also known as orthophosphoric acid or phosphoricV acid- is a weak acid with the chemical formula H3PO4. Orthophosphoric acid refers to phosphoric acid, which is the IUPAC name for this compound. The prefix ortho- is used to distinguish the acid from related phosphoric acids, called polyphosphoric acids. Orthophosphoric acid is a non-toxic acid, which, when pure, is a solid at room temperature and pressure. The conjugate base of phosphoric acid is the dihydrogen phosphate ion, H2PO−4, which in turn has a conjugate base of hydrogen phosphate, HPO2−4, which has a conjugate base of phosphate, PO3−4. Phosphates are essential for life.The most common source of phosphoric acid is an 85% aqueous solution; such solutions are colourless, odourless, and non-volatile. The 85% solution is a syrupy liquid, but still pourable. Although phosphoric acid does not meet the strict definition of a strong acid, the 85% solution is acidic enough to be corrosive. Because of the high percentage of phosphoric acid in this reagent, at least some of the orthophosphoric acid is condensed into polyphosphoric acids; for the sake of labeling and simplicity, the 85% represents H3PO4 as if it were all in the ortho form. Dilute aqueous solutions of phosphoric acid exist in the ortho form.Source: Wikipedia
-
E385 - Calcium disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate
-
E440 - Pectins
Pectins (E440) are natural carbohydrates, predominantly found in fruits, that act as gelling agents in the food industry, creating the desirable jelly-like texture in jams, jellies, and marmalades.
Pectins stabilize and thicken various food products, such as desserts, confectioneries, and beverages, ensuring a uniform consistency and quality.
Recognized as safe by various health authorities, pectins have been widely used without notable adverse effects when consumed in typical dietary amounts.
-
E452 - Polyphosphates
-
E452i - Sodium polyphosphate
-
E950 - Acesulfame k
Acesulfame potassium: Acesulfame potassium - AY-see-SUL-faym-, also known as acesulfame K -K is the symbol for potassium- or Ace K, is a calorie-free sugar substitute -artificial sweetener- often marketed under the trade names Sunett and Sweet One. In the European Union, it is known under the E number -additive code- E950. It was discovered accidentally in 1967 by German chemist Karl Clauss at Hoechst AG -now Nutrinova-. In chemical structure, acesulfame potassium is the potassium salt of 6-methyl-1‚2,3-oxathiazine-4-3H--one 2‚2-dioxide. It is a white crystalline powder with molecular formula C4H4KNO4S and a molecular weight of 201.24 g/mol.Source: Wikipedia
-
E951 - Aspartame
Aspartame (E951) is a low-calorie artificial sweetener composed of two amino acids.
It is used as a sugar substitute in thousands of "sugar-free" or "diet" products, such as carbonated soft drinks, chewing gum, yogurts, and tabletop sweeteners, to provide sweetness without the calories of sugar.
Despite being one of the most rigorously tested food additives, its safety remains controversial. While major regulatory bodies like the FDA and EFSA deem it safe for the general public, the IARC has classified it as "possibly carcinogenic to humans" (Group 2B). It must also be avoided by individuals with the genetic condition phenylketonuria (PKU).
