Kenyan Nutrient Profile Model
The Kenyan nutrient profile model focuses on establishing nutrient thresholds. The goal is to define the maximum acceptable levels of nutrients that are considered to be of concern, specifically sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats. If foods surpass these defined thresholds, they are then classified as unhealthy based on the model's criteria.
