Nutrition stats
 

A new day. I create a ‘new food’ for my new supplemental vitamin tab. I enter the vitamins and minerals, one by one, according to the label on the bottle.
Then I add my new food to my foods for the day.
Then I check my nutritional intake.
!!! MOST of the vitamins and minerals are about 1/2 of the numbers I just added when I created the ‘new food’!!!
For example: I get:
117% of my RDA of Vitamin A per the vitamin bottle,
54% on FitDay’s nutrition chart.

Any explanations, anyone????

Interesting. I just did a test. I put in 100% for Vitamin B12 and it worked as it should. Then I tried 100% for Vitamin A, and you are correct. It cut the amount about in half.

There are a LOT of errors on this program. I put up a thread below and I don't expect to get an answer. Every food that is cooked in water this program adds a ton of sodium. I just cooked pasta that had zero sodium on the box. I ate 2 cooked cups and this program calculated over 400mg of sodium. I don't know if they assume you add a lot of salt to the water or what. But I steam veggies, so there is no touching of the water. I guess since this program isn't generating any money, nobody is concerned with the accuracy.

In the following Nutrition Facts label, they have colored certain sections to help us focus on those areas that will be explained in detail. Note that these colored sections are not on the actual food labels of products you purchase.
