The SmartPoints System
By Weight Watchers
Published November 19, 2015

Our SmartPoints system kicks our proven food program up a notch by using the latest nutritional science to make healthy eating simple.
Every food and drink is assigned a SmartPoints value, one easy-to-use number based on calories, saturated fat, sugar, and protein.
Foods that are higher in sugar and/or saturated fat are higher in SmartPoints values.
Foods that are higher in protein are lower in SmartPoints values.
By eating foods that have a lower SmartPoints value you’ll automatically be steered towards healthier choices and away from the not-so healthy.
