The Access to Nutrition Initiative (ATNI) has published A new report by investigates three Nutrient Profile Models (NPMs) — the Health Star Rating (HSR) used in Australia and New Zealand, the Nutri-Score used in some EU countries and the UK NPM — and argues for the need of a globally accepted method to define and measure the healthiness of food portfolios.
This initiative employed a three-round Delphi process, which included three surveys and two roundtable events, to achieve cross-sectoral alignment on the use of Nutrient Profile Models (NPMs) for evaluating food industry portfolios.
During the three Delphi Rounds, participants evaluated the need and feasibility of aligning on NPMs used for reporting, the essential features of a robust Nutrient Profile Model (NPM), and reporting standards.
A total of 86 participants from 14 countries, representing various stakeholders such as the food industry, investors, academic experts, and NGOs, contributed to this research.
