1. Scoring

This system allotted points to over 8,000 foods and looked at carbs, proteins, fibers, saturated fat and the glycemic index of each food.

2. Common Sense

While this study was performed by doctors at a prestigious university, the results of the study do not reflect common sense. Take a look at some of the foods that had the highest points (meaning best for you) and decide for yourself if you agree with the results.

3. Processed Foods

One major concern with this food scoring system is that it normalizes processed, fake foods. We know that processed foods play a big role in the major causes of mortality and it’s important to note that the benefit of this study and the new scoring system greatly help out Big Food and Big Pharma.
