Diabetes Meal Planner for Windows

"Four of the six leading causes of death -- diabetes, heart disease, cancer and obesity -- are related to nutrition ... [but] many doctors don't ask questions about diet until the patient has a heart attack."
Dr. Steve Zeisel,
Chairman, Nutrition Department, University of North Carolina

Since ancient times, diet has been recognized as a cornerstone of diabetes management. Treatment for Type I diabetes consists of a combination of controlled diet and daily injections of insulin, on the other hand, diet alone can control Type II diabetes in many cases.

Diabetes meal planning has never been easier: This diabetic diet program incorporates the American Diabetes Association's Food Exchange System in addition to the USDA's Food Guide Pyramid. It can automatically generate daily menus that meet your Exchange specification using only the foods you select. Or it can generate millions of well-balanced menus that meets your calorie requirement using thousands of foods from its database.

NutriGenie Diabetes Meal Planner is the most sophisticated and comprehensive diabetes dietary management system available. Whether you follow the carbohydrate counting approach, or fat gram counting, or ADA food exchange system, this diabetic diet meal planner software will save you many hours of tedious planning and record keeping. New and unique features to organize food database make food selection a breeze: user can hide and reshow foods, assign them to various food groups or meals, search, sort and selectively print nutrients. No other diabetic diet software on the market gives users comparable insight into their nutrition. This diabetic diet meal planning program is an excellent companion to the American Diabetes Association's publications, especially those having nutritional data.

Although NutriGenie diabetes nutrition software is used at many medical institutions, we are not always allowed to use their logos without paying a licensing fee. Since publishing nutrition software is not as big a business as selling T-shirts and baseball caps with university logos, we have removed the logo and name of the Indiana University School of Medicine, a licensee of our diabetes software, from the adjacent graphic.

Thank you, David G Marrero, PhD, J. O. Ritchey Professor of Medicine, Division of Endocrinology & Metabolism, Indiana University School of Medicine, for pointing this out.
