The Personal Health Assistant scale from Soehnle takes the guesswork out of maintaining a balanced diet. With over 425 food codes in its databank, the scale breaks down weight, nutritional content, and caloric values at the touch of a few buttons. Because the scale can memorize and recall values, you can review your intake at any time in eight categories: carbohydrates, bread exchanges, fat, cholesterol, protein, weight, calories, and joules. Perfect for making sure you get the nutrients you need, the scale uses both metric and U.S. units, measures liquids by weight or volume, and includes a tare feature. Made of sturdy plastic with a soft-touch keyboard and a large LCD, this model also comes with a dishwasher-safe, stainless-steel weighing dish. Soehnle programs the scale using commercially standard figures, but you can also edit or add foods as you go. When programmed for weight measurement only, the scale comes in handy for baking and weighing mail. Guaranteed for three years.
