Have you ever asked students (or adults) how many fat grams they should limit themselves to per day? How about how many sugar grams? Salt? Calories? Most people have no idea the healthy limit for these nutrients that are on a food label, but this "Interactive Food Label" will change all that!!
Our idea was to create a PERSONALIZED, interactive food label where students could put it together and then flip the categories open and have the nutrition formulas right there to help them figure out how many of each nutrient THEY individually need.
IT TURNED OUT GREAT - THEIR PERSONALIZED FOOD LABEL IS ALL ON ONE WORKSHEET with all nutrients THEY personally need! (Maybe the U.S.D.A should market this!)
This is for students and adults as well! Flip up a food label section and work the formula underneath to see how much of the nutrient YOU need for YOUR body weight. Nutrient explanations and examples are included. Very cool!
