Health Star Rating
Health Stars will help you compare similar types of packaged foods, for example a breakfast cereal with other breakfast cereals. Health Star Ratings rate the healthiness of packaged food from half a star to 5 stars. Look for the stars at your supermarket and choose the packaged food with more stars.
Foods lower in saturated fat, sugar or sodium (salt), and/or higher in fibre, protein, nut, legume, fruit or vegetable content have more stars.
Health Stars are on a range of packaged foods including the home brand products. Over time, you will see more packaged foods displaying Health Stars.
You can trust the Health Stars because they are an independent rating.
