How it works
Guiding Stars helps you easily choose foods and recipes with the most nutrition.
Specific nutrients and ingredients contribute to foods earning or losing points. Nutrients that are best to limit in our diets cause a food to lose points. Nutrients we should generally be eating more of cause a food to earn points. All foods are evaluated and earn a rating, but only those with a positive rating, containing more of the qualities we want to encourage, earn 1, 2, or 3 Guiding Stars.
