The Nutripoints™ Program is a new guide to simple, healthy eating. No more counting calories, sodium, cholesterol, fats, vitamins, protein, carbohydrates, caffeine…all that work has been done for you, and formulated into just one number—the Nutripoint score. The higher the Nutripoint score for a food, the higher its nutritional value. Created by Dr. Roy E. Vartabedian while at the world famous Cooper Clinic in Dallas, no other plan is easier and healthier.
Here’s a sample of what the Nutripoint scores tell you:
*How to “upgrade” your diet and triple or quadruple your nutritional intake.
*How to “recover” nutritionally after a bad day.
*Seven ways to fight cancer nutritionally.
*Foods with negative nutritional scores you should desperately avoid.
*Ratings from the healthiest fast food chain.
*A fruit that is 6 times more nutritious than an apple.
*The best vegetable in the worldpacked with nutrition, but virtually no calories.
Covering Every Color Of The Rainbow 😉
Total of 3000 foods rated: basic, brand name, and fast foods. 80 highNutripoint recipes, 2week menu plan, shopping guide. Nutripoints is medically endorsed as a complete nutritional program. Count 100 Nutripoints per day from 6 food groups and your diet will contain fewer calories, and meet or exceed requirements of the U.S. Recommended Daily Allowances, American Heart Association, and American Cancer Society. Nutripoints gives you the answers and allows you to create your own eating plan for maximum nutrition.
How Nutripoints Works
The Nutripoint Program cuts nutritional confusion by condensing the value of all of the positive and negative factors in every food down to one number, the Nutripoint Score, which tells you how “good” or “bad” each food is. The higher the Nutripoint score, the better the food, and the more “nutrient density” (nutrients per calorie) of the food. The Best of the Best After analyzing over 3,000 foods including 1,500 “basic” foods like apples and oranges, 1,000 brand name foods, and 500 fast foods, the very highest Nutripointrated foods as a group were: #1 Vegetables, #2 Fruits. Fresh vegetables are extremely high in nutrients, very low in calories, and have virtually no “negative” factors such as fat or sodium. The same goes for fruits, which have as many nutrients as vegetables, but are higher in calories. Next come grains, and legumes (beans, peas, nuts, seeds). The lowest rated groups are whole milk/dairy and meats. Of the 100 minimum Nutripoints recommended per day, 70 of them are recommended to be obtained from vegetables(55)and fruits(15).
