Following the publication of the original article, a reader identified a typographical error in Table 2. The authors acknowledged the error and affirmed that the errors did not impact the calculations or the interpretation of the article’s results.

Incorrect:

Formulae to calculate Ratio components:

$$\:score\left(x\right)=\left\{\begin{array}{c}\frac{C\times\:x}{A}\:\:\:if\:x\le\:A\\\:\left(\frac{C\times\:100}{(100-A)}\right)-\left(\frac{C}{(100-A)\times\:x}\right)\:if\:x>A\end{array}\right.$$

For a given ratio component, x is the percentage of calories consumed, A is the optimal recommended value, and C is the maximum possible score.

Formulae to calculate Optimum components:

$$\:score\left(x\right)=\left\{\begin{array}{c}\frac{10\times\:x}{A}\:\:if\:\:x\le\:A\\\:\left(\frac{10\times\:B}{B-A}\right)-\left(\frac{10}{(B-A)\times\:x}\right)\:if\:\:A<x<B\\\:0\:\:if\:\:x\ge\:B\end{array}\right.$$

For a given optimum component, x is the percentage of calories consumed, A is the optimal recommended value, and B is the upper limit of the recommended range.
