Nx Consumer Guide : Indices and Produce Profiles

What the Indices Mean

• NDI = Nutrient Density Indices (Density-related Index)

Reflects structure-, solidity-, and density-related characteristics of produce.

• SCI = Sugar Content Indices (Sweetness-related Index)

Reflects sweetness-related, soluble characteristics commonly associated with sugars.

Important to Know

• SCI and NDI are independent measurements.

• Neither index is ‘good’ or ‘bad’ on its own.

• Different foods naturally emphasize different characteristics.
