Product Overview


The Diet & Exercise Assistant product line is committed to providing easy-to-use software tools that help you manage your daily nutrition, exercise, and health.  Our personal healthcare products help you achieve your fitness and weight loss goals.

With Diet & Exercise Assistant you can:
 
Input your personal information (height, weight, age, gender, activity level), and the software will automatically calculate the calories you burn during the day.
 
Tap the information button at the top of the screen to display the online help system.
 
Establish a weight loss program by setting a weight loss goal and target date.  A calorie calculator automatically calculates how many calories you must eliminate from your diet each day to reach your weight loss goals.
 
Diet & Exercise Assistant has three diet plans: low calorie, low carbohydrate, and low fat.  In addition to the three standard diet plans you can configure Diet & Exercise Assistant to work in combination with any of the popular diet programs today.
 
To specify nutrient targets, select a diet plan or input your own custom plan and corresponding nutrient percentages.  The values in Step 2 represent the percent of calories from each nutrient.  Diet & Exercise Assistant tracks the three nutrients that contribute to total calories of a food item: carbohydrates, protein, and fat.
 
Diet & Exercise Assistant will automatically calculate nutrient targets based on your Personal Information and weight loss goals or you can specific your own nutrient targets.
 
The Logbook screen quickly summarizes the calories consumed and shows you how many calories you can eat the remainder of the day as your food budget.
 
The Logbook screen tells you when you have exceeded your food intake for the day by showing you the amount you went over in the food budget..
 
The Logbook can be configured to summarize each nutrient in graph form.  A blue bar for the day means you have not exceeded your targets, a red bar indicates a situation where you have exceeded your targets.
 
Use the food database to log food items each day.  The food database has been restructured for ease-of-use and now contains almost 10,000 food items.  The food database is completely configurable, you can now add, edit, or delete groups, categories, and food items.  The nutritional information label on the back of most food products contains all of the information you need to add a food item to the food database. 
 
Use the new Favorites folder to group the common food you eat.  The Favorites folder is always at the top of the database.  Daily logging of the foods you eat has never been faster.
 
Create a Recipe from a list of food items.  Log the individual food items only once and let Diet & Exercise Assistant total the nutrients and add the recipe to the Food database.
 
The Meal Logbook breaks food items into breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack.  You can copy and paste a whole meal or a single food item from one day to another.  Automatically convert the serving size of all food items and drinks to any of the standard cooking units: pinch, teaspoon, tablespoon, cup, pint, quart, gallon, liters, milliliters, fluid ounces, grams, pounds, etc.
 
Track your exercise by selecting an activity from a large exercise database.  Input the minutes spent exercising, and the software will automatically calculate the calories you burn based on your personal information.  If an exercise is not in the database, you can log your own user-defined exercises.
 
Chart nutrients with a weekly or monthly histogram.  Each chart displays the actual and target value for a selected nutrient.  A red bar indicates a situation where you have exceeded your targets.
  Seven new charts are now available:

1. Nutrient Chart
2. Calories per Meal Chart
3. Exercise Chart
4. Blood Pressure Chart
5. Body Measurement Chart
6. Body Fat Chart
7. Historic Weight Chart
 
Monitor your weight loss program by charting your weight with a weekly or monthly weight chart. 
 
Use the daily weight chart to plot your current and target weight.  The daily weight chart will indicate if you are in the normal weight range, overweight or obese.
 
Use the Summary Table to quickly summarize each day and the food consumed.
 
Use the Nutrient tables to quickly summarize each day and compare the nutrients consumed against the goal for the day.  The new table quickly lets you know if you were over or under the goal and by how much.
 
If you own a blood pressure device, you can input blood pressure and the time of day when the measurement was taken.
 
Input body measurements and watch your body shape improve as you reach your weight loss goals.  Quick help is available so you know how to take accurate measurements.
 
Obtain an estimated body fat percentage from your body measurements or you can enter your own percent body fat value.
 
Use the Daily Journal to input notes while you are on your diet.
