Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objectives of the study are to assess the validity of Nestlé reformulation criteria in two national dietary surveys: the US NHANES 2011, and the French INCA2 2006-07.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Background: The Nestlé Nutritional Profiling System (NNPS) has been developed to guide food and beverage reformulation. It is not known whether products passing the NNPS standards have a higher overall nutritional density, and whether the higher consumption of NNPS Pass products is associated with a higher dietary quality.

Objective: The objectives were (i) to compare the classifications derived from the NNPS and the validated UK Ofcom nutrient profiling system; and (ii) to assess the NNPS construct validity against healthy and unhealthy diets in French (Individual and National Survey on food Consumption 2006-2007) and the US (National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys 2011-2012) nationally representative dietary surveys.

Design: NNPS outcomes (PASS, FAIL, Out-of-scope) of foods were compared to UK Ofcom outcomes. Contributions of NNPS outcomes to energy intakes were compared between diets nutritional quality classes defined by two methods: based on a food-based quality indicator (PNNS-GS in France, HEI-2010 in the US), or on a combination of three nutrient-based indicators (MAR, MER, energy density).
