Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2018 Feb 27;2(6):CD009315. doi: 10.1002/14651858.CD014845.

Abstract

This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:

  1. To estimate the effect of energy labelling for food (including non‐alcoholic drinks) and alcoholic drinks on healthier selection (with or without purchasing) and consumption.

  2. To assess possible modifiers – energy label type, setting and socioeconomic status ‐ of the effect of energy labelling on selection and consumption of food and alcohol.
