When specifying an amount of a nutrient in a custom food, you can either enter the specific amount of the nutrient or enter the nutrients' percentage.
You can also change the percentage of the recommended daily allowance for each nutrient. The food diary is preset with the FDA's recommended daily allowance.
|
You can create a custom food by automatically using the nutritional values of an existing food in the database. So if you only want to make a few adjustments, you don't have to reenter all the nutritional information, just the changes.
You can add to any food, a predefined food or a custom food you created, a custom measure. For instance, below you can see how to create a custom measure of "1 bowl" equals "10 ounces" of Cereal.
From this point on, whenever the user selects "Cereals ready-to-eat, GENERAL MILLS, CHEERIOS", an option of "1 bowl" will also appear.
