Macronutrients not calculated correctly

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

After entering some food with no fat, I see a fat percentage displayed in the macronutrients section. Is there something I miss?

Hello @babarlo good to see you have joined the Fitbit Community.

 

I was reviewing your screenshot and I can see you have 9% of fat in the macronutrients section. Comparing your food entries with our data base; Fetta Biscottata has 1,6 of fat and Marmellata di More is around 0,1. These numbers are accumulative for the fat percentage in the macronutrients graph.

 

To have more details of each food and what percentage of carbs, fat and protein has tap on each log on your mobile app in the food section. You can also review more in depth these details in your Food section using the online-Dashboard. Here you will be able to see the nutritional information of each food you are logging.

 

Let me know if you have more questions. I'll be around for more help.

Thank you for the answer. It is now clear that the food I was eating contains some fat, no doubt on this. And I also saw that the web food log is much more accurate than the log on the android app. In fact from the app I wasn't able to see the fat content of Fetta Biscottata because the fat was not there. You can see in the screenshot

Here I see only carbs and proteins but no fats. And here it is the reason of my question.

 

Can you explain why I cannot see fat in the app food log for that specific food?

 

Thank you very much

Hello @babarlo, thank you for keep me updated. I tried to see the screenshot you have mentioned but the file was deleted from your Amazon drive. Could you verify this to have a closer look why you are not able to see the fat content?

 

Usually when you log a food entry, there is an option to see the nutritional facts. Here you can see the amount of fat and other nutrients, although I would like to see the screenshot to see how it looks on your mobile app.

 

I'll be looking forward to your response. See you in a bit!

Thank you for your patience. Something went wrong with the file sharing.

 

So, here it is the link to the screenshoot I was mentioning. It is related to "Fetta Biscottata".

From the nutrition facts on the Android App I don't see any fat, but, as we said a couple of posts ago, on the web site I see them. So, it seems to me that there is a mismatch from what I see from the Android App and what I see on the web site (https://www.fitbit.com/foods/Fetta+Biscottata/532578775)

 

Thank you again.
