To help everyone know the true health content of the foods they eat, thus making it easier to make healthy eating choices, we invite you to help us develop our 4◊Score database. We’ll soon provide tools to do so.
When you look at the database below you’ll see that it is quite small, and very much a work in progress. Since Project Simplify Health is a non-profit organization, we are counting on the public (“crowd-based,” boots-on-the-ground effort) to help build it. Because of that, we cannot guarantee its accuracy. Whether you wish to contribute or to correct, please contact us.
Eventually we hope that most foods, drinks, and meals will be labeled with the 4◊Score.
The 4◊Score does not take salt or anything else into consideration besides the source of the Calories (which we are convinced is the most important determinant of health), so if you are salt-sensitive, take that into consideration.
Coming soon…free downloadable 4◊Score calculator (Excel spreadsheet)
Until the product manufacturer calculates and posts it on the package, determining the exact 4◊Score for a particular food or meal will not always be so exact or straightforward, but all we can do is try – and I would contend strongly that a good estimate will be good enough to accomplish our goals. But when you calculate an item’s 4◊Score, please send it to us through our Contact Us form.
Here is what we’ve come up with so far (how many ☑ indicates our confidence level that the 4◊Score is accurate, maximum three – those without a ☑ were determined early on, before the ☑ system was in place, and will be reevaluated):
