Exploring an energy-density adjustment to the Nutri-Score algorithm for general foods

The Nutri-Score categorizes foods by nutritional value per 100 g or 100 ml, which may lead to poor discriminatory ability for products with low energy density and large portion sizes, like ready-to-eat meals. We hypothesized that adapting the Nutri-Score algorithm to account for variation in energy density could better...
