    <p><b>Objective:</b> To assess the feasibility of the draft Japanese Nutrient Profile (NP) model, we developed informational materials about its utilization, and conducted Internet research to identify issues and needs according to the motivation of behavioral change.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> We developed the informational materials (4 pages, 1 A3-sided sheet) based on the NP model, as well as materials from other countries. An online cross-sectional survey was conducted among 3,000 Japanese consumers aged 18 years or older. The age, sex, and regional distribution of the participants, as well as their motivation for behavioral change, were similar to those of the National census and the National Health and Nutrition survey, respectively. The participants read the informational materials and were asked how such materials would affect their food purchasing behavior. Based on the participants' current motivation for behavioral change, they were divided into three groups: not interested (<i>n</i> = 1,187), intend to improve (<i>n</i> = 1,465), and recognition of no problem with own eating behavior (<i>n</i> = 348).</p><p><b>Results:</b> More than 90% of the respondents found the informational materials easy to understand. The number of respondents who answered that the symbols that warned against overconsumption would influence their food purchasing behavior was greater for all food groups among the group with the intention to improve, accounting for approximately 70%, in contrast to only about 40% among those who were not motivated.</p><p><b>Conclusions:</b> Our results indicated that the food labeling based on the NP model might influence consumers' healthy eating behaviors, especially among those who intend to improve their eating behaviors.</p>

  • A Basic Study for the Development of a Japanese Nutrient Profile Model to Support the Practice of Healthy Eating Behavior

    <p>A nutrient profile model (NP model) ranks foods according to their nutritional composition, allowing individuals to make well-informed dietary choices. In other countries, the application of NP models is reportedly associated with healthier food choices and health indicators. We examined a NP model applicable to the Japanese population for processed foods and preparing dishes. Considering the nutrition status of the Japanese population, we proposed that the model should target those aged 18 years or older. A category-specific model was adopted with setting thresholds to avoid overconsumption of total fat, saturated fat, sodium or salt equivalent, and energy for processed foods and prepared foods. We set the nutrient criteria for the proposed model and determined thresholds for each food category. In order to set the salt threshold for each dish, we conducted secondary analyses of the 2014‐2018 National Health and Nutrition Survey. The food groups according to dish type were compared between “high salt” consumers and “adequate” consumers. Furthermore, we conducted an online cross-sectional feasibility survey among 3,000 consumers. Here we describe the development procedure and feasibility of the proposed Japanese NP model to support the practice of healthy eating behavior.</p>

  • Focus Group Interviews on a Nutrient Profile Model to Support Healthy Eating Behaviors: An Investigation Targeting Those Wishing to Improve Their Eating Habits

    <p><b>Objective:</b> To increase awareness and dissemination of a nutrient profile model (NP model) in Japan, we analyzed data from consumers and identified issues they had.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> In February 2021, we conducted focus group interviews lasting roughly 2 hours with six groups of individuals according to age and sex. The age range was 18–74 years, and 36 individuals participated. Participants were individuals who purchased processed foods 2–3 times per week or more. Participants with specialized nutritional training or little desire to change their eating habits were excluded. Coding and categorization of data from the verbatim transcript and observational records were performed via content analysis.</p><p><b>Results:</b> Participants categorized the nutrition facts labels into "impractical to convert to individual serving amounts" and "I don't know what percentage or standard to use for daily intake." Participants favored NP model displays that clearly noted which nutrients were above the daily intake requirement, especially those that were color-coded and provided supplemental explanations. Many stated that while this did not influence their choice of their favorite foods, it did make them reconsider foods that were not favorites.</p><p><b>Conclusions:</b> For the NP model to support the practice of healthy eating habits among consumers, it is essential to offer immediate and clear notifications that are easy to understand. Consumer feedback indicated that the NP model notifications did not influence their choice of favorite foods. Therefore informational material to raise awareness of using the NP model should include dietary lifestyles.</p>

  • Basic Research on a Nutrient Profile Model for Japan: Draft Development and Validation

    <p><b>Objective:</b> The selection of appropriate food groups is essential to promote a healthy diet. A nutrient profile model ranks foods according to their nutritional composition, allowing an individual to make well-informed dietary choices. Nutrient profile models have already been developed in other countries but not in Japan. Therefore, this study aimed to draft a nutritional profile model applicable to the Japanese population.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> A draft of a Japanese nutrient profile model for processed food was developed and validated using the World Health Organization (WHO) 2010 technical meeting report, WHO guiding principles and framework manual for front-of-pack labeling for promoting healthy diet in 2019, and models used in other countries. Data from the Japanese National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHNS), Dietary Reference Intakes for Japanese (2020), Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan 2015 (7<sup>th</sup> revised edition), and Nikkei-POS database were used.</p><p><b>Results:</b> 1. Considering the nutrition status of the Japanese population, the target population age was set to 18 years or older, and the specific nutrients were total fat, saturated fat, sodium (salt equivalent), and energy. 2. A category-specific (threshold setting) model was selected, and the target foods included processed and prepared foods (ready-to-eat meals). Processed foods were further classified into 15 categories based on the Japanese NHNS. 3. The criteria for the Japanese nutrient profile model were determined and thresholds of the items were set to each food category.</p><p><b>Conclusions:</b> The draft of the Japanese nutrient profile model was developed according to the Japanese public nutrition status.</p>
