A points value is given to a variety of foods according to the size of the portion, the calories that portion contains, the amount of fiber and the quantity of fat in each serving. Generally, high fat foods have a high points value and foods which are high in fiber have a low points value. A dieter's daily allowance is then dependent on such things as his or her body weight and target weight. The formula used to calculate a points score is:
Where: p = Points | c = Calories | f = Fat Grams | r = Dietary fiber Grams (Note: when considering the term (min{r, 4}) no more than 4 grams of fiber are used in the calculation. That means that, if the actual figure is less than 4 then this figure is used, however, where the figure is more than 4 then 4 is used.
