"How do you eat to maximize nutrient density? Eat in accordance with the Healthy Eating Chalice, consuming more H2O than any food group, more veggies than protein (although this and the next level can be swapped if adding/maintaining significant muscle volume is your top priority), and so on down the levels of the chalice. Empty kcals should be minimal."
