- Nutrition + processing
Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

How our indicator is calculated
When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

Questions about this product
Is this answer valid for every Garden of Lif, Garden of Life product?
No. This page covers Garden of Lif Organic Plant-Based Protein Chocolate, barcode 0658010122368. Other flavours, package versions or recipes sold in different countries may differ. Match the barcode and ingredient list on your package.
What still needs to be confirmed?
The source of flavourings, unspecified chocolate, leaf, enzymes, aspergillopepsin, beta-glucanase, phytase, papain, pectinase, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, billion cfu, protein, E1104, cellulase, Lactase, hemicellulase, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, xylanase needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.
Does “may contain” make it non-vegan?
A precautionary trace statement describes possible cross-contact, not an ingredient intentionally included in the recipe. We keep it separate from the recipe assessment. This distinction does not establish allergy safety.
Is the nutrition rating the same as the vegan result?
No. Vegan status concerns ingredient origin. Nutri-Score describes a nutrition profile, NOVA describes processing, and the Veganory score is our own combination of available indicators. A vegan result does not mean a food is nutritionally balanced.
What if my label is different?
Use the current package as your reference. Open a personal check or add a clear ingredient photo below. Community evidence is reviewed before shared information changes; this page is not proof of a manufacturer review.
