Nutrition Diet Calculator
Many of our regular readers have been asking us to provide them with a
nutrition diet calculator, a tool that will help them do the math for the
carbohydrates, fats, and proteins they eat in a day.
How the Nutrition Diet Calculator Works
The nutrition diet calculator is designed to keep a running tab of how
much carbohydrate, fat, and protein you're consuming throughout the day. It helps you monitor
your food consumption, and can show you the pattern of what you're eating
before it's too late.
The Nutrition Diet Calculator Fields
For each item that you eat, enter the following information into the
nutrition diet calculator.
Food: a description of the food item or dish
Carbohydrates: the number of carbohydrates present in the food
Fats: the amount of fat present in the food
Protein: the amount of protein present in the food
Doing the Math
Once you've entered the details into the nutrition diet calculator, hit the
[Calculate Total] button. The "Totals:" fields will now be
populated, showing you your nutrition tally for the day.
For further calculations, simply add another item of food to the
nutrition diet calculator, and hit the [Calculate Total] button again.
