Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Hi, This is a copy of a cool rating system for the nutritional value in foods. I'm posting this to motivate us to keep eating all those raw nutrient packed foods over the holidays. nancy Dr. Roy Vartabedian developed the Nutripoints Program. Nutripoints rates every food for 26 key nutrients and gives one number for every food. The higher the number--the better the food. His strategy to avoid those extra pounds over the holidays is to (1) choose the highest rated foods (2) eat less of the negative-rated foods and (3) add some extra activity to your day. Rating the Holiday Foods Here is a list of the Nutripoint scores of common holiday foods. Remember, the higher the score, the more nutritional value. If a food scores "0" or "negative," that means it has little or no nutrition--and possibly some "negatives" for your health as well. Spinach Salad: 65.0 Broccoli, Raw: 53.0 Cauliflower, Raw: 40.5 Cauliflower, Cooked: 37.0 Broccoli, Cooked: 38.5 Carrots, Raw: 35.5 Mixed Salad: 33.0 Carrots, Cooked: 30.0 Green Beans: 24.5 Celery, Raw: 20.0 Fruit Salad: 13.0 Sweet Potatoes, baked: 12.0 Orange Juice: 11.0 Skim Milk: 9.5 1% Milk: 8.0 Corn, Cooked: 8.0 Grapefruit Juice: 8.0 Cranberry Juice: 7.0 2% Milk: 6.0 Pineapple Juice: 6.0 Grape Juice: 5.5 Ham, Lean: 5.0 Turkey, Light: 4.5 Sweet Potatoes, mashed, candied: 4.0 Turkey, Dark: 3.0 Applesauce: 3.0 Whole Milk: 2.5 Ham, Regular: 2.0 Crackers: 2.0 to 6.0 Cottage Cheese: 1.5 Mashed Potatoes: 1.0 Roast Beef: 0.5 Coffee, decaf: 0.5 Pork Roast: 0.0 Steamed Shrimp: 0.0 Diet Drinks w/o caffeine: 0 Light Sour Cream: -1.0 Stuffing: -1.5 Mixed Nuts, roasted, salted: -1.5 Waldorf Salad: -2.0 Bread Pudding: -2.0 Christmas Cookies: -2.0 Eggnog: -2.0 Cheese: -2.0 to -3.0 Ice Cream: -2.0 to -4.0 Diet Drinks w/caffeine: -2.5 Gravy: -2.5 Cranberry Sauce: -3.0 Sour Cream: -3.5 Apple Pie: -4.0 Coffee, regular: -4.0 Milk Chocolate: -4.5 Dip, Onion: -5.0 Jello Gelatin: -5.0 Soft Drinks w/o caffeine: -5.5 Light Beer: -5.5 Soft Drinks w/caffeine: -6.0 Pumpkin Pie: -6.0 Pecan Pie: -7.0 Butter: -7.5 Wine Cooler: -8.0 Beer: -8.0 Wine: -14.0 Hard Liquor: -17.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
