NOVA Scale Usefulness

How can you use the NOVA scale to make healthier choices? Read labels—even if you have to carry a magnifying glass—and select foods with the fewest listed ingredients. Choose the majority of your food intake from groups 1 and 2, a few from group 3, and only very occasionally from group 4. It’s a mindset and requires a bit of thinking ahead. What is that in comparison with a reduction in risks for disease, dementia, or a shortened lifespan? Brazil is credited with having prepared the first NOVA Scale in 2018 and it has been since embraced by Harvard Health and other organizations that are interested in preventing diseases including cancer and dementia—to say nothing of individuals who have learned about it.
