Healthier Eats Score
The Healthier Score is a nutrition-based comparison score that ranks restaurant meals using published per-portion nutrition data: calories, protein, fibre, sugar, salt and saturated fat.
It does not assess ingredient quality, processing level, additives, cooking method, allergens or whether a meal is suitable for a specific diet.
Around 27% of the adult daily maximum. UK guidance says adults should have no more than 6g of salt per day. This product contains around 27% of that amount.
Fibre data was not provided by the restaurant. To avoid rewarding incomplete nutrition data, Healthier Eats uses a conservative fibre sub-score of 35/100 instead of removing fibre from the calculation.
- Fibre sub-score used: 35/100
- Score confidence: Medium
How this score is calculated
Each nutrient gets a 0-100 sub-score. Sub-scores are combined into a weighted average (the raw score). If a serving-level watch-out applies, the final score is capped.
Each nutrient value is mapped onto a scoring curve. Where a value sits between two anchor points, the score is interpolated linearly.
| 200kcal | → | 45 |
| 400kcal | → | 85 |
| 550kcal | → | 100 |
| 650kcal | → | 85 |
| 750kcal | → | 60 |
| 900kcal | → | 30 |
| 1100kcal | → | 10 |
456 kcal sits between 400 kcal and 550 kcal. The score is interpolated between 85 and 100, giving a calorie sub-score of 90.6.
Protein is scored using both total grams and the share of calories from protein. The gram score contributes 60% and the protein-energy score contributes 40%.
| 0g | → | 0 |
| 15g | → | 60 |
| 30g | → | 100 |
Fibre was not published by the restaurant. To avoid rewarding incomplete nutrition data, a conservative imputed fibre sub-score of 35/100 is used (drawn from the fibre curve at ~2g). Fibre stays in the weighted average with its full weight of 15.
| 5g | → | 100 |
| 10g | → | 80 |
| 15g | → | 55 |
| 25g | → | 25 |
| 50g | → | 0 |
Lower sugar scores better. 3g is within the lowest sugar band (at or below 5g), so it receives a sugar sub-score of 100.
| 1.5g | → | 100 |
| 2g | → | 80 |
| 2.4g | → | 60 |
| 3g | → | 40 |
| 4g | → | 15 |
| 6g | → | 0 |
Lower salt scores better. 1.6g sits between 1.5g and 2g. The score is interpolated between 100 and 80, giving a salt sub-score of 96.
Salt caps are separate from the salt sub-score. The sub-score contributes to the weighted average. A cap only limits the final score if salt is high enough and the raw score is above the cap.
| 3g | → | 100 |
| 5g | → | 75 |
| 7g | → | 40 |
| 10g | → | 15 |
| 20g | → | 0 |
Lower saturated fat scores better. 14g sits between 10g and 20g. The score is interpolated between 15 and 0, giving a saturated fat sub-score of 9.
- Calories: 456 kcal → between 400 and 550 kcal → 90.6/100
- Protein: 11g → blended grams + energy → 45.7/100
- Fibre: not provided → imputed 35/100
- Sugar: 3g → ≤5g → 100/100
- Salt: 1.6g → between 1.5 and 2g → 96/100
- Saturated fat: 14g → between 10 and 20g → 9/100
Contribution = Sub-score x Weight. The raw score is the total contribution divided by the total weight (95).
| Nutrient | Sub-score | Weight | Contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calories | 90.6 | 15 | 1,359.0 |
| Protein | 45.7 | 20 | 914.0 |
| Fibre(imputed (not provided)) | 35 | 15 | 525.0 |
| Sugar | 100 | 12 | 1,200.0 |
| Salt | 96 | 18 | 1,728.0 |
| Saturated fat | 9 | 15 | 135.0 |
| Total | 95 | 5,861.0 |
Raw score = 5,861.0 / 95 = 61.7. After rounding, the final Healthier Score is 62/100.
Fibre was not published, so a conservative fibre sub-score of 35/100 was used. Fibre remains in the weighted average with its full weight of 15.
UK adults are advised to have no more than 6g salt per day. UK front-of-pack guidance treats more than 1.8g salt per portion as high for food portions over 100g. Healthier Eats uses these serving-level thresholds to decide when salt should limit the maximum score.
This is a nutrition-based comparison score for ranking restaurant meals against similar products. It is not a medical rating, ingredient-quality score or dietary advice. Always verify nutrition, ingredients and allergens with the restaurant before ordering.
What this score does not include
The Healthier Score is based on published nutrition values only. It does not currently assess ingredient quality, processing level, additives, cooking method, allergens or personal dietary suitability.
For example, two meals may have similar nutrition scores but differ in ingredients, processing or cooking method. Always check the restaurant's latest nutrition, ingredients and allergen information before ordering.
Allergens and dietary notes
Allergen information is for comparison only. Always check the official restaurant source before ordering.
