British Heart Foundation: Build your salad

‘Build your salad’ is an interactive tool for the British Heart Foundation. Whether you want to find out how healthy one of your go-to salads is or if you are looking for inspiration, it works simply by providing a list of ingredients (much like an online food shop) where you add the quantities. Complete the four categories: Vegetables, protein, extras and dressings and hit GO. The results will show you how much fat, saturated fat, calories, sugars, salt, fibre, carbohydrates and protein are in your salad, as well as how that compares with the recommended maximums for these nutrients.

The tool helps the user to see whether their salad is as healthy as they think it is and spot which of the ingredients might be bringing their results down in a fun-to-navigate quick and easy way.
