    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).

      • Types: Light (clear and mildly sweet) and dark (caramel-flavored and less sweet).
      • Concerns:
      • High in fructose, especially in the form of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS).
      • Linked to potential health issues like weight gain, metabolic disorders, and liver problems.
      • May contribute to "empty calories" with little nutritional value.
      • Corn is very water hungry, which raises concerns about hydric stress
