Nutrium has integrated the possibility for professionals to create food groups and lists of equivalents on the left-hand side menu section "Equivalents".
Create food groups or equivalent lists
In the field List of equivalents you can add different foods with similar nutritional characteristics, such as same content in carbohydrates, protein or fats, in which consumption can be switched or replaced, for example, different types of cereals (breakfast cereals, porridge oats, and crackers).
In the field Food Groups, you can add foods with shared nutritional and biological properties among them, like different types of bread (multigrain bread, whole wheat bread, oatmeal bread).
Click on the left-side menu Equivalents;
Click on Create new list of equivalents;
Change the group or list's name;
Add foods:
In the creation of lists of equivalents, the automatic food equivalents feature is not enabled.
