This article by Sofia Sousa and colleagues presents the NUTLY project, which aimed to develop a nutritional literacy measurement tool based on photographs, and to validate its application to the adult population residing in Portugal.
The NUTLY instrument is based on the premise of comparing foods with different nutritional profiles, focusing on knowledge and skills with practical relevance for food choices, and has potential applications in the contexts of food education, public health, scientific research, and clinical nutrition.
