Abstract

Introduction. Nutritional profiling systems (NPS) are mainly used in front-end labeling policies in order to make the purchase and consumption choice conscious and healthy. Objetive. This study systematically reviewed evidence from interventions on the effect of NPS in the front-of- package on food purchases. Materials and methods. A bibliographic search was carried out in electronic sources from Medline, Elsevier, Scielo and Lilacs, of experimental studies and intervention between 2012 and 2022. A total of 14 articles were included in the review. They were analyzed according to the intervention modality used: 4 studies analyzed the effect of NPS in a real purchase situation and 10 evaluated purchase perception/intention. Results. According to the modality of intervention, the 6 studies that analyzed the NPS-warning system, all recorded healthier purchases compared to the control groups. While for the NPS-NutriScore, Health Star Rating and Multiple Traffic Lights were effective in the decision to purchase healthier foods, in 5 of 7 studies for the first NPS, in 4 of 7 for the second and in 4 of 8 for the third, compared with control groups. Conclusions. Findings of this study suggest that NPSs may be effective for healthy purchase choices, even so it is necessary to strengthen the system and policies with nutritional food education campaigns.

营养概况系统和正面标签在购买过程中食品选择的影响:系统回顾

介绍营养分析系统（NPS）主要用于前端标签政策，以使购买和消费选择有意识和健康。目标。这项研究系统地回顾了来自干预措施的证据，即包装前的NPS对食品购买的影响。材料和方法。2012年至2022年间，在Medline、Elsevier、Scielo和Lilacs的电子来源中进行了实验研究和干预的文献检索。共有14篇文章被纳入审查。根据使用的干预模式对其进行了分析：4项研究分析了NPS在真实购买情况下的影响，10项研究评估了购买感知/意图。后果根据干预方式，分析NPS预警系统的6项研究都记录了与对照组相比更健康的购买情况。与对照组相比，NPS NutriScore、健康星级评定和多个红绿灯在决定购买更健康食品方面是有效的，在第一个NPS的7项研究中有5项、第二个NPS的4项和第三个NPS的8项中有4项是有效的。结论。这项研究的结果表明，NPS可能对健康的购买选择有效，尽管如此，有必要通过营养食品教育活动来加强系统和政策。
