Expert Tip

There is no "magic score" you should aim for when buying food. We at NuVal believe a balanced diet consists of foods from all categories and can be found all over the NuVal scale. However, the more high-scoring items you eat, the more nutrition you will receive. NuVal gives you the information to make an informed decision.
