Guide to link foods within the local food list with methods of portion size estimation

portion-1

This section will guide you through linking foods within the local food list with methods of portion size estimation. There is a directory of the portion size images already within the system, guidance on taking new food photographs along with templates for calculating the weights of food to display. There is also information on assigning standard portion sizes and information on the density of food, for use if a food photograph is to be used for estimation of a similar food item.
