ANDI score

This post isn't going to be about a recipe, but it is about food! I stumbled across a little thing called the "ANDI Score" when I shopped at Whole Foods Market. ANDI stands for Aggregate Nutrient Density Index. Foods with high ANDI Scores have the highest nutrients per calorie. The system is amazing and can really help anyone navigate around the grocery store and pick the foods with the most abundant nutrients. Like Dr. Oz says, "Your body craves nutrients, not calories" !
Below I posted the food pyramid, determinded by the ANDI score, as well as the website which gives tons of information about the system.
I encourage you to look into it and start adapting it to your lifestyle!
