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.

76/100Healthier Score
Final score
76/100
Raw weighted score
77
Category percentile
n/a
Salt: 1.2g

Around 20% of the adult daily maximum. UK guidance says adults should have no more than 6g of salt per day. This product contains around 20% of that amount.

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.

How each sub-score was created

Each nutrient value is mapped onto a scoring curve. Where a value sits between two anchor points, the score is interpolated linearly.

Calories
Calories: 793 kcal
200kcal→45
400kcal→85
550kcal→100
650kcal→85
750kcal→60
900kcal→30
1100kcal→10

793 kcal sits between 750 kcal and 900 kcal. The score is interpolated between 60 and 30, giving a calorie sub-score of 51.4.

Protein
Protein: 27.3g

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%.

Protein gram curve:
0g→0
15g→60
30g→100
Protein energy curve: 0% → 0, 20%+ → 100
Gram sub-score: 92.8
Energy sub-score: 68.9 (13.8% of calories from protein)
Blended protein sub-score = (gram × 0.60) + (energy × 0.40) = 83.2
Fibre
Fibre: 9g
0g→10
2g→35
4g→60
6g→85
8g→100

9g is at or above 8g, giving a fibre sub-score of 100.

Sugar
Sugar: 5.9g
5g→100
10g→80
15g→55
25g→25
50g→0

Lower sugar scores better. 5.9g sits between 5g and 10g. The score is interpolated between 100 and 80, giving a sugar sub-score of 96.4.

Salt
Salt: 1.2g (around 20% of the adult daily maximum of 6g)
1.5g→100
2g→80
2.4g→60
3g→40
4g→15
6g→0

Lower salt scores better. 1.2g is within the lowest salt band (at or below 1.5g), so it receives a salt sub-score of 100.

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.

Saturated fat
Saturated fat: 8.8g
3g→100
5g→75
7g→40
10g→15
20g→0

Lower saturated fat scores better. 8.8g sits between 7g and 10g. The score is interpolated between 40 and 15, giving a saturated fat sub-score of 25.

At a glance
  • Calories: 793 kcal → between 750 and 900 kcal → 51.4/100
  • Protein: 27.3g → blended grams + energy → 83.2/100
  • Fibre: 9g → ≥8g → 100/100
  • Sugar: 5.9g → between 5 and 10g → 96.4/100
  • Salt: 1.2g → ≤1.5g → 100/100
  • Saturated fat: 8.8g → between 7 and 10g → 25/100
Worked score calculation

Contribution = Sub-score x Weight. The raw score is the total contribution divided by the total weight (95).

NutrientSub-scoreWeightContribution

Saturated fat2515375.0
Total957,266.8

Raw score = 7,266.8 / 95 = 76.5. After rounding, the final Healthier Score is 76/100.

Salt methodology

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.
