The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Front-of-Pack labels, namely Nutri-Score and NutrInform Battery, work to improve adherence to the Mediterranean diet among healthy Italian adult participants. It will also learn about the label's ability to increase nutritional knowledge and participant's response in terms of orthorexic behaviour. The main questions it aims to answer are:

| Adherence to the Mediterranean diet | The adherence is measured with the PREDIMED (PREvención con DIeta MEDiterránea) PLUS questionnaire adapted for the Italian population. The questionnaire asks about the frequency of consumption of traditional Mediterranean food (daily or weekly) by defining the portion size, or asking about the use of food with "yes or no" options, or identifying preferences between different food options. Possible values range from 0 to 17. Higher values correspond to a higher adherence. | 30 days |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Nutrition Knowledge | Nutrition knowledge is measured by the General Nutrition Knowledge Questionnaire (GNKQ) adapted for the Italian population (I-NK Questionnaire). It is composed of four sections exploring different aspects of NK: (NK1) Experts' recommendations (9 questions); (NK2) Food composition (10 questions); (NK3) Food choices and nutrition labels (11 questions); (NK4) Diet-disease associations (16 questions). Possible values range from 0 to 88. Higher values correspond to a higher knowledge. |

| Orthorexic behaviour | Orthorexic behaviour is measured by the ORTO-R Questionnaire. The ORTO-R is an adaptation of the ORTO-15, from which it contains six items which were identified as the best markers of orthorexia nervosa. The response scale is a five-point Likert-type scale and a higher score reflects higher intensity of orthorexia nervosa thoughts and behaviors. | 30 days |
