Sugars in high quantity (52.4%)
What you need to know • A high consumption of sugar can cause weight gain and tooth decay. It also augments the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardio-vascular diseases. Recommendation: Limit the consumption of sugar and sugary drinks • Sugary drinks (such as sodas, fruit beverages, and fruit juices and nectars) should be limited as much as possible (no more than 1 glass a day). • Choose products with lower sugar content and reduce the consumption of products with added sugars.

Salt in moderate quantity (0.56%)
What you need to know • A high consumption of salt (or sodium) can cause raised blood pressure, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. • Many people who have high blood pressure do not know it, as there are often no symptoms. • Most people consume too much salt (on average 9 to 12 grams per day), around twice the recommended maximum level of intake. Recommendation: Limit the consumption of salt and salted food • Reduce the quantity of salt used when cooking, and don't salt again at the table. • Limit the consumption of salty snacks and choose products with lower salt content.

About Green-Score

The Green-Score is an experimental score that summarizes the environmental impacts of food products.

Current scope

The Green-Score was initially developed for France and it is being extended to other European countries. The Green-Score formula is subject to change as it is regularly improved to make it more precise and better suited to each country. Select a country to include the full impact of transportation in the final score.

Forest footprint

Forest footprint

Low risk of deforestation Presence of one or more ingredients at risk of deforestation, but low risk given their quantity, origin and/or labels. Forest Footprint The Forest Footprint is a methodology developed by the association Envol Vert to estimate the risk of deforestation related to our consumption. → More information on the methodology Forest Footprint grade: B Presence of one or more ingredients at risk of deforestation, but low risk given their quantity, origin and/or labels. Total Forest Footprint: 0.008 m² per kg of food

Deforestation risk details

Cocoa Primary ingredient grade: B Primary ingredient: 0.007 m² per kg of food Cocoa production, concentrated mainly in West Africa, contributes significantly to deforestation. For example, Côte d'Ivoire, the leading cocoa-producing country, has lost 90% of its forests since the 1960s. Coffee Primary ingredient grade: B Primary ingredient: 0.001 m² per kg of food Coffee cultivation, concentrated mainly in Central and South America and Southeast Asia, is responsible for 130,000 hectares of deforestation each year since 2000. Other risky ingredients These ingredients are not yet assessed for deforestation risk: skimmed milk powder butter Labels The presence of certain labels can greatly help reduce the risk of deforestation, through the presence of environmental criteria and/or through better remuneration of producers.
