Guiding Stars Algorithm Update Media Kit (ZIP)

The Guiding Stars algorithm changed on June 8, 2016 in response to the updated 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The nutrition rating algorithm no longer imposes debits on foods that contain dietary cholesterol. Under the new algorithm, only foods with the very highest amounts of dietary cholesterol, 300 mg or more per 100 calories, will not earn stars. This folder provides graphics and printable materials to help you communicate about this change.
