• Analyses for 28 Nutrients and is Coded by Food Type
Each food item has analysis data for 28 nutrients including vitamins, minerals, protein, energy carbohydrates and fats and every food has been coded by 'type, allowing daily or weekly food intake to be assessed to show dietary imbalances acording to the'Health Eating Pyramid' model.

• Analyses Specialised Diets Including Vegetarian/Vegan
FoodScan is also ideal for analysing vegetarian and specialised diets, for pregnant and lactating women, for sports people and those wishing to increase or decrease their weight.

• Produces Meaningful Charts and Tables
Easy-to-read charts and tables illustrate the results, revealing for example, 'which foods eaten today provide the cholesterol/fats/nutrients in my diet?' or 'which foods are rich in folate and low in saturated fatty acids?' Tables and charts show nutrient intake compared to RDI's, with any significant deviations flagged for easy identification.
