Reference Intakes

Pi

Powerful Tools At Your Fingertips

By default, Pi uses the Reference Intake values for major nutrients as recommended by the UK Food Standards Agency, referred to as the System profile. These values are used to calculate the percentage of Reference Daily Intake in your recipes, and is also used by Pi's traffic light labelling system. The system profile is based on "an average-sized woman doing an average amount of physical activity". If you prefer, you can disable Pi's system profile and define your own profiles. Users in your organisation will then be able to choose one of your own Reference Intake Profiles throughout different areas in Pi.
