Canned vegetable Scores – which range from a high of 100 to a low of 3 – vary with the concentration of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, but also with additives, salt in particular, which tend to lower the Scores. Canned vegetables with no added salt generally Score very close to, sometimes even the same as, fresh and frozen vegetables with no additives. However, as the levels of sodium and other additives (such as sugar or oil) increase, NuVal Scores decrease – often times significantly, as in the case of pickled beets. A helpful tip for reducing the sodium content is to rinse canned vegetables before you heat or serve them. Next   Previous   Back to Categories
