What is Nutri-score?
Developed by French epidemiologist Serge Hercberg, the Nutri-score is a food labeling system. It allows consumers to be informed of the nutritional balance of a processed food product, using a colored rating scale ranging from A (green = balanced) to E (red = not balanced). Its purpose is in particular
to facilitate the comparison between several similar foods and to make the healthiest choice. The Nutri-score calculation is the result of an algorithm that takes into account "positive" (fiber, protein, fruit and vegetable content) and "negative" (salt, sugar, saturated fatty acids, energy) aspects.
