The NOVA system aims at classifying food products according to the nature, extent, and purpose of industrial processing.
Nova groups for food processing
A classification in 4 groups to highlight the degree of processing of foods
In the report "The UN Decade of Nutrition, the NOVA food classification and the trouble with ultra-processing" (pdf, pdf), Carlos Augusto Monteiro, Geoffrey Cannon, Jean-Claude Moubarac, Renata Bertazzi Levy, Maria Laura C. Louzada, and Patrícia Constante Jaime advocate for the adoption of a system of grades from 1 to 4 to allow to simply compare the degree of processing of products.
New research associating researchers from Inserm, Inra and the Paris 13 University (Centre de recherche épidémiologie et statistique Sorbonne Paris Cité, équipe EREN) suggest a correlation between the cosumption of ultra-transformed foods and an increased risk of developing a cancer.
That is physical, biological, and/or chemical alterations of the appearance and/or properties of the raw material that is achieved. Four different groups of products are differentiated by NOVA:
1 Unprocessed and minimally processed foods;
2 Processed culinary ingredients;
3 Processed foods; and
4 Ultra-processed foods.
The term unprocessed foods are used synonymous with “natural” raw materials that are obtained from plants (e.g., fruits, leaves, grains, seeds, tubers, roots), animals (e.g., muscles, offal, eggs, milk), fungi, algae as well as water. It is therefore clear that unprocessed foods are not always directly edible; some of the materials are required, e.g., to be heated to ensure safe consumption and high digestibility.
However, since the preparation of these raw materials for palatable foods and dishes can be done at home, they are considered unprocessed or natural foods.
Minimally processed foods are obtained after minor industrial processing steps that exclusively aim to increase the shelf life and storability and enhance the edibility and digestibility of food without changing its major composition and properties. Such processes include in particular drying, chilling and freezing, crushing and grinding, pasteurization, non-alcoholic fermentation as well as packaging.
➜ The Nutri-Score grade, from A to E : Nutritional quality
➜ The NOVA group, from 1 to 4 : Avoid ultra-processed foods (Group 4)
➜ Milk, Gluten, Eggs, Soybeans, Nuts, Fish, Celery, Mustard, Sulphur dioxide and sulphites, Peanuts, Sesame seeds, Crustaceans, Molluscs or Lupin allergy ?
➜ Speed up your shopping by doing an initial screening of your food with Open Food Facts.
➜ Be careful that the information may not be 100% accurate, and detection may not be 100% accurate. So always double check by yourself, with the packaging.
