RE: Online Food Record Tool

[Guest guest]

I'm not sure if this is what you have in mind, but www.sparkpeople.com is a free

website that anyone with internet service can access. It requires a user name

and password to create an " account " and then you can log on to track food

intake. I advise for my patients, but also use it myself. I find it amazing

sometimes how many calories I can consume, and of course I'm knowledgable about

nutrition~so imagine the impact it makes on the patient. And I would say its

user friendly for the average person. Good luck!

Hello!

I am looking for a credible online food record/analysis tool that is

user friendly, credible database and will provide an evaluation of an

individual's diet. Does anyone have suggestions?

Thank you for your help!

One of my patients uses sparkpeople.com. I think the url is

http://sparkpeople.com/myspark/loginpage.asp?whereFrom=nutrition.asp

Registration is free. They offer a whole support program online including the ability to do away with the meal plans and input your own diet and have it analyzed. Just one option.
