We translate nutrition labels into a consistent rating system. Each product is evaluated using three core factors so you can see how products stack up at a glance.
01
FactorNutrients to Encourage
We analyze the presence of protein, dietary fiber, and essential micronutrients that actively support your physical health and wellbeing.
02
FactorNutrients to Limit
We flag products high in sodium, added sugars, and saturated fats—ingredients that should be minimized in a balanced plant-based diet.
03
FactorLevel of Processing
We evaluate overall ingredient quality, refinement levels, and the presence of synthetic additives or highly processed oils.
