Be the BEST you can..
.. by eating the best, the most nutritious, delicious.
to feel the best you can, based on objective facts, and not opinions!
Food for thought?
In 2017, Dr Charles Massy, OAM, leading thinker on food / farming systems, stated : What we need are self-organizing, self-sustaining food movements if we want to save this nation from bad food!"
What is Nutrient Density?
The higher the density of the Juice, liquid or sap of produce, the higher the density of all the nutrients of that produce, the more nutritious and delicious it is!
For the past 200 years, the BRIX scale in refractomers has been regarded as the best objective measure of food quality by food scientists, foodies, chefs and health authorities like our National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) and
Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ)

What is Nutrient Density?
This refers to the amount of nutrients in an item of produce or food. The higher the density level, the greater the amount of nutrients, the more nutritious, delicious!
Why is it important?
One needs to balance your Recommended Nutrient Intake (RNI) f you want to feel better and live longer.
Cheaper quality is not always better-see VMI
- on the right, if using the Web
- above if on mobile.
Who uses it?
Farmers, growers have been using BRIX meters for the past 80 years to improve their soil by monitoring the quality of their output - produce, cereals, grasses, etc,
Consumers have been using spectro's to scan (2-3 secs), without touching, and compare for the most delicious, nutritious produce before they have to pay for them.
When can they be used?
At any temperature. BRIX meters / NutriMeter I (Ni)s refractometers have ATC (Automatic Temperature Control) to adjust measures, readings and ratings to 20 degrees C, the BRIX standard.
Spectro's - With our Nutrimeter X (Nx), this is to be tested, comparing the same produce at 0 and 40 degrees C.
The focus of our testing since 2023 has been to ensure that our digital output (NDI = Nutreint density Indicator) is consistent in comparing the relative nutrient densities measured by refracto's and other spectro's - so far our Nx has been 100% reliable.
We believe that that we can get close to 100% correlation with BRIX measures, providing a Mobile app in the next generation of Nx's to provide BRIX readings and ratings for some 450 varieties of produce available in ANZ.
Where are they used?
Just about anywhere, but not underwater, obviously.
How are they used?
Refracto's require juice / sap extraction. Time consuming and messy, cannot be done in a shop. But very accurate.
In 3-4 secs, spectro's scan and display NDI's whilst walking down food aisles. See pics below (downloadable)
Want to know more? become an Affiliate? Community Builder?
Build your local Community around local food, local skills and nutrtional info.
Our goals are to provide:
- tools to measure soil, produce and balance human RNI (nutri-intake)
- on-line "Farmers' Markets" systems for anyone
and to
- enable growers to get superior prices for superior produce, as we have done,
- enable and incentivise Affiliates to become local Community Builders., if they so wish,
