Dietary indices underpinning front-of-pack nutrition labels and health outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies
CONCLUSIONS: Dietary indices underpinning most common FOP nutrition labels and reflecting nutrient-poor diets showed a tendency towards an increased incidence of CVD and cancer, but the observed effects were quite modest in magnitude. Further studies at the population level are needed to support the widely shared hypothesis that FOP labels, possibly in conjunction with other interventions, may contribute to reduce non-communicable disease risk.PMID:38145705 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.12.017
