Identify foods that will help you lose weight
When you look at the nutrition information for a food or recipe on NutritionData.com, you’ll see a box labeled “ND’s Opinion.” Foods and recipes are awarded 0 to 5 stars in each of three categories, based on their nutritional value and their ability to fill you up.
Weight loss: Foods that are both nutritious and filling are considered better choices for weight loss because they keep you feeling satisfied with fewer calories.
Optimum Health: Foods that have more essential nutrients per calorie are considered better choices for optimum health because they maximize your nutrient intake.
Weight Gain: Foods that are nutritious without being overly filling are considered better choices for healthy weight gain because you can eat more high-quality calories without feeling too full.
Using the star ratings can help you zero in on foods that will make weight loss easier. Another useful tool is the Nutritional Target Map. Foods that fall in the upper right hand corner of the map get more stars for weight loss.
