Starting To EatSmart™

Thank you for your interest in the EatSmart™ Nutrition Scale. Our product is the most practical and comprehensive nutrition education scale on the market, allowing you to accurately and effectively understand and monitor the relationships between the portions you eat and their nutritional value.

The “EatSmart™” scale utilizes an internal food database containing 999 of the most commonly consumed American foods, which have been carefully selected because nutritional information is not readily available (i.e., fresh fruits & vegetables, meats, fish, etc.).

For packaged foods which carry a USDA Nutrition Facts label, the EatSmart’s Nutrition Facts Calculator allows you to quickly calculate the exact nutritional data as well. Simply weigh the portion on the scale, imput the label’s nutritional information and the scale will calculate the amount of calories (or any other labeled nutrients).

All nutritional data was derived from the USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference No. 19.

I hope you benefit from the information this product provides as much as my family does.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SCALE

Read the operating instructions and become familiar with the buttons and their functions. The buttons will allow you to select modes, enter numbers and save and display nutritional information.

The EatSmart™ Nutrition Scale has two modes to help calculate nutritional information accurately and is explained on the following pages in more detail.

1)The Normal Mode will calculate 12 nutrients from the 999 foods programmed into the scales memory.

2)The Nutrition Facts Calculator mode will calculate nutrients from a portion of food that comes with a Nutrition Facts Label on the side or back of a package, can or container.

TIPS

1)Make sure the scale is on a clean, flat surface

2)When placing a plate or bowl on the scale, make sure the weight is at zero before placing food on the plate. If not press tare.

3)All food should be weighed in edible form to provide the most accurate values without pits, rinds and skins unless specified.

4)Familiarize yourself with the food codes and write the most common food item down in the back of this brochure for easy reference.

5)Get into the habit of weighing food and eyeballing food in grams not ounces. Most nutritional information is displayed in grams especially the USDA required Nutrition Facts labels.

6)Use the 1/2/3/4 button to focus on key nutrients appropriate for

your needs

1-Diet and diabetes

2-Cardiovascular

3-Lipids

4-Osteoporosis and warfarin users
