True or false nutrition quiz
Quiz · 2–3 min · free · no data storedFive short questions to untangle common nutrition myths. Each explanation is concise and sourced.
What you get
Five statements to judge, a sourced explanation after each answer, then your score and the topics to review.
What this tool gives you
This quiz tests five common nutrition claims against current scientific evidence: gluten, fruit juice, evening starches, water needs, protein, salt and wholegrain bread. Every answer comes with a short explanation, a concrete example and the source used.
By the end you know which myths still shape your food choices and which topics deserve a closer look in consultation: meal balance, weight management, digestion or cardiometabolic prevention. The quiz is free, takes 2 to 3 minutes and requires no sign-up.
The results are educational: they are not a diagnosis, a prescription or a personalised nutrition assessment.
Frequently asked questions
- Does the quiz replace a consultation?
- No. It is an educational benchmark. An individual nutrition assessment takes your history, blood work, treatments and real habits into account.
- Are my answers stored?
- No. The quiz runs entirely in your browser; nothing you answer is stored or transmitted.
- What are the correct answers based on?
- On the current scientific guidance cited under each question, not on food trends or commercial products.
Method and sources
The quiz draws on recognised sources: ANSES, EFSA, Santé publique France, HAS, WHO, as well as peer-reviewed journals. Each question states its source.
The correct answer can be "True", "False" or "It depends": in nutrition, nuance is often the most honest answer.
Next time a piece of nutrition news surprises you, check a reliable source, for example ANSES, EFSA, Santé publique France or a good-quality scientific journal.
Clinical methodology: the statements and their corrections follow European nutrition guidance (EFSA), the reference points of the diabetes, cardiology and gastroenterology learned societies, and conventioned dietetic practice in Luxembourg (CNS–ANDL convention). No food supplements are sold or recommended on this site.
