Nutrient Profile Models Position Paper
The Nutrient Profile Models (NPMs) position paper presents best practices for defining, selecting and using effective NPMs. NPMs are used to classify or categorize food products based on their nutritional content and establish thresholds for harmful nutrients and ingredients.
The NPMs position paper serves as a comprehensive guide for advocates and decision-makers.
The NPMs position paper was developed by the Global Health Advocacy Incubator (GHAI) in partnership with the Global Center for Legal Innovation on Food Environments, Resolve to Save Lives and Vital Strategies.
