Abstract

The increase in the consumption of processed foods has worsened the occurrence of chronic diseases, however this situation can be controlled if the consumer knows the nutritional value of the foods they consume. This study aimed to determine the nutritional quality of processed foods sold in the Malanje market. Several tools, such as Nutri-score, were developed to determine the nutritional quality of foods.
