Nutri Score & Chiggie Analysis
Nutri-Score & Chiggie Analysis: Complementing Each Other for Better Food Choices
At Chiggie, we believe that every step toward healthier food choices is a step worth celebrating. Nutri-Score, developed as a simple and intuitive labeling system, has already made it easier for consumers across Europe to make informed decisions about their diets. But for those looking for even deeper insights, particularly in the health and fitness space, Chiggie Analysis offers a complementary approach that takes transparency to the next level.
Here’s how Nutri-Score and Chiggie Analysis work together to empower better choices:

1. Scoring System
Nutri-Score provides a straightforward A–E grading system, allowing consumers to quickly assess the overall healthiness of a product based on its nutrient content per 100g/ml and the algorithm is being improved by respective agencies.
Chiggie Analysis, optimized for the health and fitness category, builds on this simplicity by introducing AI-driven analysis. Our system grades products while also breaking them down into three distinct categories: Nutrients, Ingredients, and Health Impacts. This provides a more nuanced understanding of how a product aligns with specific health goals.
2. Transparency
One of the challenges with Nutri-Score is that it does not always explain the reasoning behind a product’s grade. This simplicity makes it accessible but leaves some consumers wanting more context.
Chiggie Analysis addresses this by offering clear, detailed explanations for each score. Whether a product gets an ‘A’ or a ‘D,’ you’ll understand the why—including the positives and potential concerns.
3. Ingredient Buckets
While Nutri-Score focuses on overall nutrient content, Chiggie goes deeper into ingredient transparency. Every ingredient in a product is categorized as:
- Good: Beneficial for health.
- Permissible: Acceptable in moderation.
- Alarming: Ingredients to avoid for better health.
This visibility empowers consumers to choose products aligned with their dietary priorities.
4. Allergen & Dietary Profiles
For those with dietary restrictions or allergies, Nutri-Score doesn’t provide specific information. Chiggie Analysis fills this gap by including:
- Detailed Allergen Profiles: Helping consumers avoid potential risks.
- Tailored Dietary Insights: Supporting preferences like vegan, gluten-free, and high-protein diets.
5. Interactivity and Educational Value
While Nutri-Score serves as a helpful guide, it’s static by nature. Chiggie takes an interactive approach, allowing users to tap on individual ingredients for detailed insights, such as functional benefits, taste profiles, and glycemic index.
Moreover, Chiggie incorporates educational resources, helping consumers better understand the health impacts of various ingredients and empowering them to make more informed decisions.
