Giant Eagle is introducing the NuVal Nutritional Scoring System to its 25 Central Ohio stores. NuVal is a nutritional scoring system developed by an independent panel of nutrition and medical experts from top rated universities and health organizations. A team of independent nutritionists formulated the color-coded dietary information blocks in accordance with FDA and USDA guideline to assist customers in making more informed choices about healthy eating. Value of the food is ranked by its overall nutritional assessment on a scale from 1 to 100. The nutritional shelf-labeling system boasts "What NuVal™ makes instantly clear is that not all raisin brans or tomato soups or whole wheat sandwich breads are created equal. Now you can cut through the clutter of food labels and nutritional claims by simply comparing NuVal™ Scores and choosing the item that ranks the highest. It's called trading up, and it can make a huge difference in your diet!"<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">www.gianteagle.com<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
