Information

This is a caloric density calculator for the Noom color system. It uses Noom's calorie density formula to assign food to the color categories green, yellow and red. Calorie density of a food is measured by dividing the calories in a serving by the weight (in grams) or the volume (in ml) of a serving.

Food items are divided into solid, soup, and liquid to calculate the color categories. In addition, there are a few things that can change the color of a food item. Whole grain or whole wheat solid foods go up one category (ex. yellow to green). Liquids containing alcohol or sodas with sugar go down one category (ex. green to yellow) and liquids with artificial sweeteners are always yellow.

Note: This calculator does not work for dairy products. In the Noom system dairy products are divided as follows independently from their caloric density: Full fat dairy is red, Low Fat dairy is yellow and No-Fat Dairy is green

If you want to use this calculator without the Noom color system, refer to the caloric density result and ignore the color.
