Three rules, every comparison

How the Index works

Useful rankings start by narrowing the question—not by compressing every food into one score.

  1. Pick one question

    Calories, fiber, free sugar composition, serving size, and evidence status answer different questions.

  2. Keep every food on the same denominator

    Use 100 g for mass, 100 kcal for energy efficiency, or a sourced serving for practical context.

  3. Check the exact state and evidence

    Raw, peeled, ripe, and serving details stay visible, and missing values never become zero.
