NUTRIENT SURVIVAL BY THE NUMBERS
NUTRIENT SCORE
Nowhere is it more critical for the body and mind to perform than in the life-or-death situations our Special Operations Forces face. That’s why the military has studied this for years and determined that nutrient dense foods can enhance performance and contribute to mission success. In fact, military scientists created strict nutritional requirements for the food used during warfighting missions “of intense or highly mobile training or conflict.”
Nutrient Scores make a like for like comparison (e.g., 100g of measured foods) of the relative density of essential nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, fiber, and ratios) present in foods. For more information about Nutrient Density, reference Nutrition>WISEcode>See Methodology for a detailed explanation of the methodology used to measure the nutrient density of foods in the graph above.
Nutrient Scores are calculated using data provided by manufacturers on their Nutrition Facts Label (NFL) on their websites or as further disclosed between August, 2021 and April, 2022. If manufacturers do not provide certain nutrition data, data is displayed as "--" and it is not included in any calculations.
