Calorie counts on menus and food labels may not help consumers choose healthier foods, new research shows

_{//food-wine.news-articles.net/content/2025/05/12 .. s-choose-healthier-foods-new-research-shows.html}
^{Published in Food and Wine on Monday, May 12th 2025 at 11:08 GMT by}

Knowing how many calories a food contains has become a familiar part of eating. But it may muddy rather than clarify a person's understanding of how healthy that food is.

The article from Yahoo Life discusses the impact of calorie counts on menus and food labels, highlighting a study that suggests these counts may not significantly influence consumer behavior or weight loss. The research, conducted by Tufts University and published in the journal Obesity, analyzed data from 2015 to 2020 and found no substantial changes in calorie intake or body weight among adults following the implementation of mandatory calorie labeling in chain restaurants. Despite this, the study acknowledges that calorie counts can still be useful for some individuals in making healthier choices. The article also touches on the broader context of food labeling, mentioning that while calorie counts are required on packaged foods, the effectiveness of such labels in promoting healthier eating habits remains debated.
