Adding ALL nutrition facts to Custom Foods

TS1965 · 01-18-2011, 01:49 AM

I'm trying add Nurition Facts from a Clif Bar. But some of the items on the bar's label are not options in FitDay's nutrition info template. How can I add the missing ones? For example, FitDay is missing: Sugars, Insoluble Fiber, Vit K, Manganese, Chromium, and others. How can FitDay give me an accurate diet tracking system if it cannot allow for 100% of the data?

Thanks!

as of right now, those things can not be added. I hope that soon they will be.

I have the same hope. It would be great if we could add all the ingredients.

I tried adding the nutrition facts from the products used in a recipe and they said some of the values were wrong. I think I can still count.

That is my only complaint with fitday.....especially where the incidense of Diabetes is so high...we all need to be watching our sugar intake and picking carbs that have a low gi more so than high GI choices....
GI= Glycemic Index

Hi cookieveino. First, thanks for posting under an already existing thread.

Do you have Diabetes? From what I understand it's the carbs that are important to watch, and sugar is just a subcategory of carbs. I've seen people say that the doctors tell them to watch the carbs. Do you know differently?

Sugar and Alcohol labeling

I totally agree with you about the Glycemic Index.
