Cá as a dtagann na sonraí, conas a oibríonn na foirmlí, agus cá bhfuil an cruinneas níos laige.

In short

Use the numbers on this site as a guide. Neither the food database nor the calculator promises perfect precision.

  • Food pages are based on Open Food Facts data and cleaned up before publication.
  • The calculator gives a starting estimate, not a personal medical target.
  • If numbers disagree, the package and your real weight trend matter more.

Cá as a dtagann na sonraí

Tagann bunchloch an bhunachair ó Open Food Facts, sa chuid RU. Sula bhfoilseofar é, glantar agus caighdeánaítear na sonraí ionas go mbeidh na leathanaigh táirge inléite agus inchomparáide.

Ní chuirimid an t-eastóscadh amh suas mar atá sé. Ar dtús déanaimid na réimsí a chur i bhfoirm shoiléir do dhaoine, agus ansin tógaimid leathanaigh agus áireamháin orthu.

Conas a fhoilsímid

Foilsímid ach na leathanaigh a bhfuil brí soiléir acu do dhaoine, ní do na hinnill chuardaigh amháin.

Ní mheasaimid torthaí cuardaigh ná stáit shealadacha na n-áireamhán mar phríomhleathanaigh an tsuímh.
