\"\"<\/a>Family Cookbook Project<\/a>, an online leader in the creation of personalized printed cookbooks, has added the ability to include WW SmartPoints\u00ae on recipes being added to a user\u2019s collection of recipes.<\/p>\n

WW<\/a> (formerly Weight Watchers) SmartPoints*\u00a0is a system where\u00a0every food and drink is assigned a point\u00a0value, and you receive a certain number of SmartPoints to allocate however you’d like every day and week. SmartPoints is designed to help\u00a0guide\u00a0you to a healthier pattern of eating every day.<\/p>\n

\u201cLiving a health lifestyle and eating right is what WW SmartPoints are all about,\u201d says Bill Rice, Founder and Co-Publisher of the Family Cookbook Project. \u201cFamily Cookbook Project has added a field to It\u2019s easy-to-use Add a Recipe form so that users participating in the Weight Watchers program can have an easy way to include the SmartPoint value when adding a recipe to their online recipe box. These recipes can them be printed into a personalized cookbook including all of their favorite recipes.\u201d<\/p>\n

WW\u2019s science-based SmartPoints\u00a0system assigns every food a number based on four components:\u00a0calories, saturated fat, sugar, and protein. The higher the number, the more sugar and saturated fat the food will have. The lower the number, the less it will have. The reason for this is that numerous studies have confirmed the benefits of eating less sugar and saturated fat, and more protein\u2014not just for weight loss, but all sorts of other healthy reasons too.<\/p>\n

Family Cookbook Project editors<\/a> can turn on WW SmartPoints\u00ae by going to the Recipe Center and clicking on the link \u201cWW Smartpoints Use\/Show\u201d. There are two settings: one for allowing contributors to add WW SmartPoints\u00ae to a recipe and another to include SmartPoints in the printed edition of the cookbook.<\/p>\n

In addition, Family Cookbook Project is developing a simple to use calculator that will calculate the SmartPoint value of a food simply by entering information from a food\u2019s packaging. We expect this to be introduced early next year.<\/p>\n

With over 4.6 million users, WW is the most trusted source of weight loss guidance in the world. Family Cookbook Project believes their success is based on meeting the ever-changing needs of our valued customers. \u201cThis is just one more example how Family Cookbook Project is putting our customers first,\u201d added Rice.<\/p>\n
