A points score is allocated to various foods based upon the size of the portion, the number of calories, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat in each serving. In general, high fat foods will have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber will have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on such things as body weight and amount of weight loss he or she wishes to achieve. The formula for calculating a points value is:
Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams (Please note: when considering the term (min{r, 4}) a maximum of 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. So, if the actual dietary figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, however, if the figure is more than 4 then 4 is used. Here you can see a few examples of the points values given to particular foods:
