Abstract
A system, a method, and a computer program product for determining a nutritional value of a food item are disclosed. In response to a query from a user, a calorie value of a food item based on a number of calories contained in the food item is determined. Saturated and/or unsaturated fat values of the food item are determined based on a saturated fat value and/or an unsaturated fat value of the food item. A determination of whether at least one vitamin and/or mineral is contained in the food item is made and at least one vitamin and/or mineral value for the food item is generated. A determination is made of whether at least one controversial ingredient is contained in the food item, and at least one controversial ingredient value for the food item is generated. A nutritional value for the food item is generated.
Claims24
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- determining, in response to a query from a user, using at least one processor coupled to at least one database, a calorie value of a food item based on a number of calories contained in the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, a saturated and/or unsaturated fat values of the food item based on a saturated fat value and/or an unsaturated fat value of the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, whether at least one vitamin and/or mineral is contained in the food item, and based on the determining, generating, using the at least one processor, at least one vitamin and/or mineral value for the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, whether at least one controversial ingredient is contained in the food item, and based on the determining, generating, using the at least one processor, at least one controversial ingredient value for the food item;
- and
- generating, using the at least one processor, a nutritional value for the food item based on the determined calorie value, the determined saturated fat value, the determined unsaturated fat value, the generated vitamin and/or mineral value, and the generated controversial ingredient value.
A system comprising:
- at least one programmable processor;
- and
- a machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one programmable processor, cause the at least one programmable processor to perform operations comprising:
- determining, in response to a query from a user, using at least one processor coupled to at least one database, a calorie value of a food item based on a number of calories contained in the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, a saturated and/or unsaturated fat values of the food item based on a saturated fat value and/or an unsaturated fat value of the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, whether at least one vitamin and/or mineral is contained in the food item, and based on the determining, generating, using the at least one processor, at least one vitamin and/or mineral value for the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, whether at least one controversial ingredient is contained in the food item, and based on the determining, generating, using the at least one processor, at least one controversial ingredient value for the food item;
- and
- generating, using the at least one processor, a nutritional value for the food item based on the determined calorie value, the determined saturated fat value, the determined unsaturated fat value, the generated vitamin and/or mineral value, and the generated controversial ingredient value.
A computer program product comprising a machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one programmable processor, cause the at least one programmable processor to perform operations comprising:
- determining, in response to a query from a user, using at least one processor coupled to at least one database, a calorie value of a food item based on a number of calories contained in the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, a saturated and/or unsaturated fat values of the food item based on a saturated fat value and/or an unsaturated fat value of the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, whether at least one vitamin and/or mineral is contained in the food item, and based on the determining, generating, using the at least one processor, at least one vitamin and/or mineral value for the food item;
- determining, using the at least one processor coupled to the at least one database, whether at least one controversial ingredient is contained in the food item, and based on the determining, generating, using the at least one processor, at least one controversial ingredient value for the food item;
- and
- generating, using the at least one processor, a nutritional value for the food item based on the determined calorie value, the determined saturated fat value, the determined unsaturated fat value, the generated vitamin and/or mineral value, and the generated controversial ingredient value.
