Source of data

The nutrition quality score is calculated using macro- and micronutrient balance and energy density. This score is for informational purposes only; it is not medical or dietary advice.
How we use the data
Data are taken from official sources, normalized to the 100 g standard, and presented consistently on the platform. We do not test the data ourselves; we rely on the source databases.
