This week’s #foodfight is the battle of the bananas. The yellow fruit from @sproutsfm just edged out the ones from @gelsonsmarkets, thanks to higher levels of potassium https://t.co/JMDgv5AwKr

Curious about how many GBs of data are in an apple? Tune in to the Agents of Innovation #podcast with @DavidKnies as he talks to our own @gshewma about #nutritionalintelligence and more https://t.co/dmnNiRD3pZ

For this week’s #foodfight, we pitted #avocados from @Albertsons and @Walmart against each other. Albertsons’ crop came out on top - it contained more oil, the so-called “good fats” that give it its creamy taste. https://t.co/EkQTYNH4fU

Welcome to round one of #foodfight! For our inaugural week, we compared apples to apples and found that @Star_Mrkt had the highest overall quality in its apple selection compared to @sproutsfm. It was close though - follow the link for more details. https://t.co/csEA5NV1iK

#Covid19 has consumers reaching for perceived “healthier options.” While fresh produce will always beat processed and packaged snacks, we’d love to help retailers and customers alike identify the most nutritional food on the market. https://t.co/EBdfFSFRLi

The #Covid19 food trends expected to stick around: more cooking at home, ordering groceries online, meal kits, and reaching for smaller labels when familiar name brand items are out of stock. https://t.co/Get4sjfAdr

What do we mean when we say #nutritionalintelligence? Next time you’re in the grocery store, ask yourself, “Which apples are the freshest?” “Which strawberries have the most antioxidants?” “Which bananas have the most potassium?” https://t.co/Pe4YSveIVl

Rigorous studies of #nutrition are so hard to produce! Even if subjects eat the exact same food day after day, we know there can be massive variance in the nutrition that food contains. That’s it’s essential to develop accurate measurements. https://t.co/UOqEfmaFjf

It doesn’t get much more local than your own roof! Food that’s quickly distributed, and travels a shorter distance from farm to plate, can have less time to lose its nutritional value. https://t.co/CaIihKrk4J

Hear our co-founder on the latest episode of the @pma Takes on Tech Podcast talking to host @vonnie_estes about an individualized approach to #nutrition. https://t.co/GsYAXSlspP

#NutritionalIntelligence starts with understanding what’s in our food, but extends to how that food affects our bodies, from blood sugar to digestive microbes. We’ll be watching for the results of this new study from @NIH. https://t.co/oGFm4FRwMu

Looks can be deceiving, especially in the produce aisle. Take our quiz and see if you can spot the healthy fruit and vegetables with your eyes alone - the results may surprise you! https://t.co/h158RHuoRG

Kelp is incredible. Its presence alone protects coastlines by absorbing wave energy, and when prepared well it tastes great - it’s rich with umami flavor. If you have a chance to try it, you should! #sustainability https://t.co/vFP4qCFR10

We’d love to measure the nutrition of the food raised on these farms! The @gatesfoundation is helping farms “adapt to climate change and make food production in low- and middle-income countries more productive, resilient, and sustainable." #sustainability https://t.co/E4zMgXpZOA

Once a landfill, now a farm: by leveraging unused, or even undesirable, plots of lands in urban locations, we can provide food security and economic opportunity for at-risk communities. Case in point: this model of #urbanfarming in Chiang Mai, Thailand. https://t.co/mf0AfsfJrC

[TeakOrigin Inc. @teakorigin]

Our #NutritionalIntelligence platform helps consumers and businesses make optimal food decisions. With our measurements, they can get the most nutritious and fresh produce available for their money.

Using indoor farming techniques, @AppHarvest is creating farms and agricultural employment in a region that previously had neither #sustainability https://t.co/TO42g1PQxd

Our lifestyles change as we age, and so should our diets. Once we all have a better understanding of what’s in our food, it will be easier to meet the needs of an aging population #nutrition #aging https://t.co/y5YKgjDLsh

Via the @wef, growing leeks under LED lights is not only beautiful, it reduces the need for pesticides by activating “the natural defense system of plants.” It's a great way to increase crop growth while reducing environmental impact! #sustainability https://t.co/BMNjiB43E9
