Nestle company which makes famous products like Maggi, KitKat, and Nescafe, is back in the spotlight. A few years ago, Maggi, a product of Nestle, got into trouble in India. But now Nestle is not in trouble because of the Food and Drug Administration or any government. In an internal document, Nestle acknowledged that more than 60 percent of its mainstream foods and drinks do not "meet a recognized definition of health".

Food and beverages are produced by Nestle. About 60 percent of these products are not healthy and the nutritional value of these products is under investigation, the information has been provided by Nestle itself. Once the investigation is complete, the strategy will be changed and work will start. This case is related to health.Therefore, we will work to make the products more healthy and tasty, said Nestle.

A report on Nestle's products has been published by the Financial Times. The daily said that it had knowledge of a presentation circulated among top executives earlier this year that said that only 37 percent of Nestle's food and beverages by revenues, excluding products such as pet food, achieve a rating above 3.5 under Australia's Health Star Rating system.

Nestle's Maggi brand is popular not only in India but all over the world. Nescafe coffee is also quite popular. According to Nestle's internal survey, 60% of its products are not healthy. In particular, some of our products have never been healthier and have not improved, according to the survey report. ‘We are considering changing our entire portfolio. People will be provided with nutritious products considering their health, 'the company said in a survey.
