In the U.S., a nutritional ranking system like Nutri-Score or Health Star Rating has not yet been established, highlighting a significant gap in food transparency for consumers.
Nutrient profiling systems, such as Nutri-Score in France or the Health Star Rating in Australia, classify food based on nutrient content, which aids consumers in making informed choices.
The Nutrient Consume Score (NCS), developed to provide a more accessible ranking for foods, ranges from 1 to 100 and considers factors vital for maintaining a healthy microbiome.
Nutrient profiling systems operate by assigning points for underconsumed nutrients while deducting points for overconsumed ingredients, leading to a scoring format that indicates overall food healthiness.
