    Get a kitchen (food) scale to weigh everything you eat at home.

    Most of the database entries on MFP are user-created (crowd-sourced), so check the accuracy of nutritional information in the database entries you use against package labeling or, for whole foods, against a reliable database such as https://fdc.nal.usda.gov/ (use the SR Legacy database).

    The food database is extensive. Just be sure to check the quantity/servings before you select an entry. It doesn't appear these entries go through an accuracy or duplication check. Chia seeds is one example of incorrect information.
