The Heart Foundation

The Tick Program is the Heart Foundation’s guide to helping people make better food choices quickly and easily. Tick foods meet the Heart Foundation’s strict nutrition standards for nutrients such as saturated and trans fats, sodium, kilojoules (calories) and fibre. Products with the Tick have been tested by an independent laboratory, and are routinely spot checked to ensure that they continue to comply with the Tick's requirements.

The GI Symbol Program

The GI Symbol program is run by Glycemic Index Ltd, a non profit organization formed by the University of Sydney, Diabetes Australia and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

The GI Symbol represents an accurate, credible and convenient way to identify the glycemic index (GI) of foods.
High, medium and low GI foods may carry the GI Symbol as long as they meet specific nutrition criteria and have had their GI tested by an accredited laboratory.

Nestlé has a range of low GI products that carry the GI Symbol to help make it easy for you to choose low GI foods when shopping.
