Algorithms used to calculate the E-NRF index scores.
| Model | Algorithm | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| NRn100kcal | ∑i = 1–n (Nutrienti/RDVi) * 100 |
Nutrienti = content of nutrient i in 100-kcal edible portion; RDVi = recommended daily values for nutrient i |
| LIM3100kcal | ∑i = 1–3 (Nutrienti/MDVi) * 100 |
Nutrienti = content of limiting nutrient i in 100-kcal edible portion; MDVi = recommended daily values for nutrient i |
| NRFn.3100kcal | NRn–LIM3 | Difference between sums |
NRn, nutrient-rich score consisting of n beneficial nutrients dependent on the evaluated E-NRF score; LIM3, limited nutrient score consisting of three nutrients to limit; NRF, nutrient-rich foods score.
