In this paper, I first provide definitions of nutrient profiling and of a nutrient profile model. I set out the purposes of nutrient profiling: both general and specific. I give two examples of nutrient profile models that have been developed for regulatory purposes by the Food Standards Agency (FSA) in the UK and the WHO for its European Region - the UK FSA/Ofcom and the WHO-Euro models - and compare the way the models are constructed and function, how they have been developed, the extent to which they have been tested and validated and their use in regulation. Finally I draw some conclusions about the future use of nutrient profiling for regulatory purposes. I argue that its full potential has yet to be realised and give some reasons why. I pose some urgent research questions with respect to nutrient profiling.
本文首先对营养成分谱和营养成分模型的定义进行了阐述。接着，本文列出了营养成分谱的两个目的：一般目的和具体目的。本文还提供了两个已经为监管目的而开发的营养成分模型的例子，一个是由英国食品标准局（FSA）为其监管目的开发的，另一个是由世界卫生组织（WHO）为其欧洲区域开发的——英国 FSA/Ofcom 模型和世卫组织-欧洲模型，并对模型的构建和功能、开发方式、测试和验证程度以及在监管中的使用进行了比较。最后，本文对未来营养成分谱在监管方面的应用提出了一些结论。本文认为，营养成分谱的全部潜力尚未得到充分发挥，并给出了一些原因。本文还提出了一些与营养成分谱相关的紧急研究问题。
