Advocacy groups ShareAction and Access to Nutrition initiative (ATNI) welcome Nestlé’s decision to improve its reporting on products’ nutrition profiles. In previous years, ShareAction had challenged the food and nutrition company to improve the healthfulness of its product portfolio. At the same time, ATNI urges food companies to use internationally recognized nutrient profiling models to better assess portfolios’ healthiness. ATNI calls Nestlé’s commitment an “important step toward greater accountability in the food sector.” The foundation, which challenges the food industry to create healthier food systems, adds that the proposed actions respond to ATNI’s recommendations in its Global Access to Nutrition Indexes.
