A points value is allotted to a variety of foods based upon the portion size, the calories that portion contains, the quantity of fiber and the quantity of fat contained in each serving. Usually, foods which are high in fat will have a high points value and high fiber foods will have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on such things as his or her body weight and amount of weight loss he or she wishes to achieve. The formula used to calculate a points score is:
Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams (Please note: in the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. That means that, if the actual dietary figure is less than 4 this figure is used, but, where the figure is over 4 then 4 is used.
