Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: To assess how Australian infant and toddler foods compare to a nutrient and promotion profile model (NPPM) developed by the World Health Organization to support the appropriate promotion of commercial food products for children aged 6-36 months.
METHODS: A cross-sectional audit of infant and toddler foods found at three major Australian supermarkets was conducted in September/October 2022. Using nutrition and promotional data extracted from the packaging, products were classified according to NPPM categories and assessed against relevant compositional, front-of-pack labelling and promotional requirements.
RESULTS: Of 330 eligible products identified, just 28% met all NPPM compositional requirements. Toddler foods were less compliant than infant foods overall (18% vs. 31%; p=0.021), and for specific nutrients such as sodium (75% vs. 89%; p=0.003). No products met all NPPM front-of-pack labelling/promotional requirements. Only two-thirds and two-fifths of products were compliant with product name and ingredient list requirements, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: Australian infant and toddler foods do not fully comply with the NPPM requirements. While toddler foods performed comparatively worse in terms of their nutritional adequacy, there is considerable scope to improve the nutrient profile of both infant and toddler foods.
CONCLUSIONS: To better support young children\'s health and development, the introduction of mandatory nutrition standards for Australian toddler foods, and the improvement of nutrition standards for Australian infant foods, in line with the NPPM, is needed. To be most effective, these should be combined with regulations for the labelling and promotion of these foods in line with the NPPM.

摘要：
目的：评估澳大利亚婴幼儿食品与世界卫生组织开发的营养和促进模式（NPPM）的比较，以支持6-36个月儿童适当推广商业食品。
方法：2022年9月/10月对澳大利亚三大超市发现的婴幼儿食品进行了横断面审核。使用从包装中提取的营养和促销数据，产品根据NPPM类别进行分类，并根据相关成分进行评估，包装前标签和促销要求。
结果：在确定的330种合格产品中，只有28%满足所有NPPM组成要求。整体上，幼儿食品的合规性低于婴儿食品（18%与31%；p=0.021)，和特定的营养素，如钠(75%vs.89%；p=0.003）。没有产品符合所有NPPM包装前标签/促销要求。只有三分之二和五分之二的产品符合产品名称和配料表要求,分别。
结论：澳大利亚婴幼儿食品不完全符合NPPM要求。虽然幼儿食品在营养充足性方面表现相对较差，改善婴幼儿食品和幼儿食品的营养成分还有相当大的空间。
结论：为了更好地支持幼儿的健康和发育，引入澳大利亚幼儿食品的强制性营养标准，以及改善澳大利亚婴儿食品的营养标准，与NPPM一致，是需要的。为了最有效，这些应与符合NPPM的这些食品的标签和促销法规相结合。
