Diet Food Scale

The price of a diet food scale varies as much as the brand names and capabilities of the scale. After doing some research, there were scales that cost $5.00 all the way to a diet food scale that cost a hefty $650.00. The function of the diet food scale is to make sure you are getting the correct proportion of food for your diet. This is especially important for individuals who must count calories or have a medical condition that requires a certain level of carbohydrates.

The test kitchen went with a middle of the road model that performed very well for ounces and pounds. The testing included price, durability, accuracy and ease of use. Here are the results of the diet food scale model that was found to be what the test kitchen believed to be the best value and most accurate and easy to use:

44-page guide to living a healthy lifestyle

1000 foods in the database

The only scale that can calculate USDA Nutrition Facts

This scale does everything except cook the food for you. The test kitchen, which included a clinical dietician, chose this scale because it was easy to use, weighed correctly every time after 100 test runs and has a data base of 1000 foods. The fact that it can also calculate the nutrients in the food was a big bonus. If you are serious about dieting or need a scale to maintain health, this scale is a very good pick for you. The price of $75.00 was reasonable considering the capabilities of the diet food scale. The scale held up to quite a beating from the testers at the test kitchen. They dropped it, put it through a dunking in a sink full of water, and used it over 100 times and the diet food scale survived it all to accurately weigh food, give correct read outs for the nutritional values and still looked pretty good after all the abuse it was put through.
