Free Open Source Dieting Software
Hi all came across this on my travels so thought it would be worth a mention as some people may not be able to afford mainstream dieting software, here is what it say's on the site about it
CRON-O-Meter is free, open source, and cross-platform dieting software.
CR (Calorie Reduced) diets require a lot of information to perform optimally. In order to restrict caloric intake, but remain healthy, users of the diet must track their vitamin, mineral, and protein intakes with great care
We aim to provide a complete solution to the CR dieter. Current open-source diet-tracking applications fall short in some vital respects. Either they are not detailed enough, or they suffer from critical usability flaws. We believe that a diet tracker must be effortless to operate for the activity for which it will be used most of the time, keeping track of the foods eaten in a particular meal.
To this end, we are developing CRON-O-Meter, an application that will take into account good usability design and dense functionality. It will provide diet advice, track consumption and exercise, and generally assist in all aspects of a CR diet.
Here are it's features
- Includes nutritional information on over 7000 foods from the latest USDA sr19 datasources.
- Food editor for creating custom foods.
- Recipe editor to create new foods built from sets of other foods
- Import and export foods and recipes to share with other users
- Set personal targets for each nutrient, or use the official DRIs
- Track and chart your biometrics (weight, blood pressure, temperature, etc…).
- Generate detailed reports on your nutritional information
