Top 3 Most Nutrient Dense Foods

NUTRIENT DENSE KALE

Ever heard of the ANDI scores?  No, I'm not talking about Olypmics or doping results.  Aggregate Nutrient Density Index (or ANDI) is a scale that measures vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and antioxident capacities on a scale of 1-1000.  (One being the lowest and 1000 being the highest amount of nutrients possible.)  Created by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, these scores are based on:  Health = Nutrients/Calories.  For example, that Snickers bar in your freezer would be a 1. Without giving you an exhaustive list of nutrient dense foods that get the most bang for your bite, I give you...the short list.

Top 3 ANDI (Nutrient Dense) Foods:

1.  Kale:  ANDI Score = 1000 (This is like gold medal, winner of the all-around, top dog food.)
2.  Collards:  ANDI Score = 1000
3.  Bok Choy:  ANDI Score = 824
