Table 1 (continued)
Baseline Points for Category 1 or 2 Foods
| Baseline points | Average energy content (kJ) per 100 g or 100 mL | Average saturated fatty acids (g) per 100 g or 100 mL | Average total sugars (g) per 100 g or 100 mL | Average sodium (mg) per 100 g or 100 mL |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9 | >3015 | >9.0 | >40.0 | >810 |
| 10 | >3350 | >10.0 | >45.0 | >900 |
(2) Calculate the baseline points using the following formula -
Total baseline points = (points for average energy content) + (points for average saturated fatty acids) + (points for average total sugars) + (points for average sodium)
3 Baseline points for Category 3 foods
(1) Use the information in Table 2 and the formula in subitem (2) to work out the baseline points, for the content of energy and each nutrient in 100 g or 100 mL of the food product (based on the units used in the nutrition information panel).
