Based on the Overall Nutritional Quality Index, (ONQI), the system was developed over a 2 year period by a panel of 12 medical and nutritional experts from leading North American Universities and health organizations, led by Dr. David L. Katz, M.D., Associate Professor, Adjunct of public health at Yale University School of Medicine and a nationally recognized authority of nutrition weight control and the prevention of chronic disease.
