Brief Summary:
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:
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).
