Organized societies, government and industry have sought ways to ensure they can provide consumers with reliable and easy-to-interpret nutritional information. One of the aspects that has been discussed refers to the possibility of offering a greater number of data, in relation to critical aspects of health, which can decode, without replacing, those already present in the list of ingredients and in the nutritional information table, in order to allow rapid interpretation. In this sense, the Brazilian Association of Nutrology is seeking to collaborate with this initiative by proposing the use of the Nutri-Score model, in an adapted form, as a method of informing the nutritional profile. This document reviews this model, demonstrates its scientific validation and suggests adaptations in order to make it more informative.
