Nutri-Score A
Very good nutritional quality
- Discover the new Nutri-Score!
  The computation of the Nutri-Score is evolving to provide better recommendations based on the latest scientific evidence.
  Main improvements:
  Better score for some fatty fish and oils rich in good fats
  Better score for whole products rich in fiber
  Worse score for products containing a lot of salt or sugar
  Worse score for red meat (compared to poultry)
  → Discover all the improvements of the new Nutri-Score
- What is the Nutri-Score?
  
  The Nutri-Score is a logo on the overall nutritional quality of products.
  
  The score from A to E is calculated based on nutrients and foods to favor (proteins, fiber, fruits, vegetables and legumes ...) and nutrients to limit (calories, saturated fat, sugars, salt). The score is calculated from the data of the nutrition facts table and the composition data (fruits, vegetables and legumes).
  
  → Learn more about the Nutri-Score
Negative points: 0/54
- Energy
  0/10 points (unknown)
  
  Energy intakes above energy requirements are associated with increased risks of weight gain, overweight, obesity, and consequently risk of diet-related chronic diseases.
- Sugar
  0/10 points (unknown)
  
  A high consumption of sugar can cause weight gain and tooth decay. It also augments the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardio-vascular diseases.
- Saturated fat
  0/10 points (unknown)
  
  A high consumption of fat, especially saturated fats, can raise cholesterol, which increases the risk of heart diseases.
- Salt
  0/20 points (0.01g)
  
  A high consumption of salt (or sodium) can cause raised blood pressure, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
- Non-nutritive sweeteners
  0/4 points (0 sweetener)
  
  Non-nutritive sweeteners may not confer any long-term benefit in reducing body fat in adults or children. There may be potential undesirable effects from long-term use of non-nutritive sweeteners, such as an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases in adults.
Positive points: 0/18
- Proteins
  0/7 points (unknown)
  
  Foods that are rich in proteins are usually rich in calcium or iron which are essential minerals with numerous health benefits.
- Fiber
  0/5 points (unknown)
  
  Consuming foods rich in fiber (especially whole grain foods) reduces the risks of aerodigestive cancers, cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes.
- Fruits, vegetables and legumes
  0/6 points (0%)
  
  Consuming foods rich in fruits, vegetables and legumes reduces the risks of aerodigestive cancers, cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes.

  This product is considered to be water for the calculation of the Nutri-Score.
  
  Points for proteins are counted because the product is considered to be a beverage.
  
  Nutritional score: 0 (0 - 0)
  
  Nutri-Score: A

Nutrient levels
- Salt in low quantity (0.0138%)
  What you need to know
  
  A high consumption of salt (or sodium) can cause raised blood pressure, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
  
  Many people who have high blood pressure do not know it, as there are often no symptoms.
  
  Most people consume too much salt (on average 9 to 12 grams per day), around twice the recommended maximum level of intake.
  
  Recommendation: Limit the consumption of salt and salted food
  
  Reduce the quantity of salt used when cooking, and don't salt again at the table.
  
  Limit the consumption of salty snacks and choose products with lower salt content.
