Comparison of the nutritional composition and calculated Nutri-score classifications of the Dutch food retail supply in 2018 and 2020
Objective: In the Netherlands, reformulation strategies have been established for several years, whereas Nutri-Score was implemented in 2024. Besides being a helpful tool for consumers to make healthier food choices, Nutri-Score also aims to stimulate food reformulation by food manufacturers. The present study investigates whether changes in food composition could have led to different calculated Nutri-Score classifications. Design: Food composit…
The effects of health-related food taxes on the environmental impact of consumer food purchases: Secondary analysis of data from a randomised controlled trial in a virtual supermarket
Objective: To measure the effects of health-related food taxes on the environmental impact of consumer food purchases in a virtual supermarket. Design: This is a secondary analysis of data from a randomised controlled trial in which participants were randomly assigned to a control condition with regular food prices ( n 152), an experimental condition with a sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) tax ( n 131) or an experimental condition with a nutrient p…
Less meat in the shopping basket. The effect on meat purchases of higher prices, an information nudge and the combination: A randomised controlled trial

Evaluation of foods, drinks and diets in the Netherlands according to the degree of processing for nutritional quality, environmental impact and food costs
Compared with unprocessed or minimally processed foods and drinks, UPF and UPD were found to be less healthy considering their high energy, SFA, sugar and sodium content. However, UPF were associated higher GHG emissions and with less blue water use and food costs. Therefore daily blue water use and food costs might increase if UPF are replaced by those unprocessed or minimally processed. As nutritional quality, environmental impacts and food cos…
A social cost-benefit analysis of meat taxation and a fruit and vegetables subsidy for a healthy and sustainable food consumption in the Netherlands
The studied meat taxes and F&V subsidy showed net total welfare benefits for the Dutch society over a 30-year time horizon
Educational differences in healthy, environmentally sustainable and safe food consumption among adults in the Netherlands
Objective: To assess the differences in healthy, environmentally sustainable and safe food consumption by education levels among adults aged 19–69 in the Netherlands. Design: This study used data from the Dutch National Food Consumption Survey 2007–10. Food consumption data were obtained via two 24-h recalls. Food consumption data were linked to data on food composition, greenhouse gas emissions (GHGe) and concentrations of contaminants. The Dutc…
Are our diets getting healthier and more sustainable? Insights from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition – Netherlands (Epic-NL) cohort
Objective: To identify differences in dietary quality, dietary greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and food consumption over 20 years in a Dutch cohort. Design: Participants ( n 8932) filled out an FFQ in 1993–1997 and in 2015. The Dutch Healthy Diet index 2015 (DHD15-index) score, GHG emissions and consumption of food groups (g/4184 kJ (1000 kcal)) were compared between the time points with paired t tests. Setting: The Netherlands. Participants: Euro…
Reducing GHG emissions while improving diet quality: Exploring the potential of reduced meat, cheese and alcoholic and soft drinks consumption at specific moments during the day
Reducing the consumption of red and processed meat during dinner and of soft and alcoholic drinks throughout the day leads to significantly lower dietary GHG emissions of people in the Netherlands in the highest tertile of dietary GHG emissions, while also having health benefits. For subgroups of the population not meeting energy or iron requirements as a result of these dietary changes, low GHG emission and nutritious replacement foods might be …
The potential of future foods for sustainable and healthy diets
Development and evaluation of the Dutch Healthy Diet index 2015
Objective To update the Dutch Healthy Diet index, a measure of diet quality, to reflect adherence to the Dutch dietary guidelines 2015 and to evaluate against participants’ characteristics and nutrient intakes with the score based on 24 h recall (24 hR) data and FFQ data. Design The Dutch Healthy Diet index 2015 (DHD15-index) consists of fifteen components representing the fifteen food-based Dutch dietary guidelines of 2015. Per component the sco…
Are more environmentally sustainable diets with less meat and dairy nutritionally adequate
Objective Our current food consumption patterns, and in particular our meat and dairy intakes, cause high environmental pressure. The present modelling study investigates the impact of diets with less or no meat and dairy foods on nutrient intakes and assesses nutritional adequacy by comparing these diets with dietary reference intakes. Design Environmental impact and nutrient intakes were assessed for the observed consumption pattern (reference)…
How may a shift towards a more sustainable food consumption pattern affect nutrient intakes of Dutch children
Objective Food has a considerable environmental impact. Diets with less meat and dairy reduce environmental impact but may pose nutritional challenges for children. The current modelling study investigates the impact of diets with less or no meat and dairy products on nutrient intakes. Design Energy and nutrient intakes were assessed for observed consumption patterns (reference) and two replacement scenarios with data from the Dutch National Food…
Greenhouse gas emission of diets in the Netherlands and associations with food, energy and macronutrient intakes
Objective To evaluate the greenhouse gas emission (GHGE) of diets in Dutch girls, boys, women and men and to explore associations with diet composition. Design Descriptive analyses for the total population as well as stratified for gender, age and dietary environmental load. Setting The Netherlands. Subjects Dutch children and adults aged 7–69 years ( n 3818). Results The GHGE of daily diets was on average 3·2 kg CO 2 -equivalents (CO 2 e) for gi…
Replacement of meat and dairy by plant-derived foods: Estimated effects on land use, iron and SFA intakes in young Dutch adult females
Objective Reduction in the current high levels of meat and dairy consumption may contribute to environmental as well as human health. Since meat is a major source of Fe, effects on Fe intake need to be evaluated, especially in groups vulnerable to negative Fe status. In the present study we evaluated the effects of replacing meat and dairy foods with plant-based products on environmental sustainability (land requirement) and health (SFA and Fe in…
Impact of foods with health logo on saturated fat, sodium and sugar intake of young Dutch adults
Objective Health logos are introduced to distinguish foods with ‘healthier’ nutrient composition from regular foods. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of changed food compositions according to health logo criteria on the intake of saturated fat, sugar and sodium in a Dutch population of young adults. Design Foods in the Dutch food composition table were evaluated against nutrient criteria for logo eligibility. Three replacement scena…
The gap between food-based dietary guidelines and usual food consumption in Belgium, 2004
Objective To evaluate the gap between food-based dietary guidelines (FBDG) and the usual food consumption in Belgium. Design and setting Information on food intake was collected with two non-consecutive 24 h recalls, using the validated software package EPIC-SOFT in combination with a self-administered FFQ. Habitual food intake was estimated by the Nusser method. Physical activity was evaluated according to the International Physical Activity Que…
Food Intakes by Preschool Children in Flanders Compared with Dietary Guidelines
The objective of this study was to compare food group intakes among preschool children with food-based dietary guidelines (FBDG) and to determine the proportion of children meeting these guidelines. Food consumption of preschool children (2.5-6.5 years) living in Flanders (Belgium) were assessed in a cross-sectional study, using proxy reported 3d estimated dietary records (EDR) (n 696). Statistical modelling was used to account for within-individ…
