manual carefully before use. Keep these instructions handy for future reference.
This Taylor® Nutritional Scale is designed for precise measuring of ingredients or
portions and for the better understanding of various nutritional values (fat
content, salt content, cholesterol, carbohydrate, fiber, protein and calories) for
food or ingredients in cooking, baking, or just general dietary consumption.
This scale offers a complete database on nutritional value information on over 900
foods or ingredients as listed in the USDA National Nutrient Database for
Standard References release 15.This includes nutrition values for most commonly
used ingredients, foods as well as liquids!
Additionally, this scale with its 99 memory entry capacity has the facility to make
multiple food entries and help you keep track over an extended period of time and
store it in its memory. At the end of the day or week (or anytime in between) the
total accumulated calories, fat grams or mg of salt, etc, that have been entered
into the scale memory can be recalled. All these features make this
scale ideal for everyday and dietary purposes.
