A points score is assigned to foods based upon the size of the portion, the calories that portion contains, the quantity of fiber and the amount of fat in each serving. As a general rule, foods which are high in fat have a high points score and foods which are high in fiber have a low points score. A dieter's daily allowance then depends on such things as body weight and the desired weight loss. The formula for calculating a points value 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. For instance, if the actual figure is less than 4 this figure is used, but, where the figure is more than 4 then 4 is used.
