NutriGenie Automatic Menu Generator

With this technology, the user can specify a daily caloric consumption level and instruct the program to automatically generate menus that are well-balanced and meet the desired caloric requirement.

The task of menu preparation can be quite tedious to health professionals who need to recommend different diets to a large number of people; or to individual users who have to follow certain restrictive diet but don't know what and how much they can eat.

NutriGenie AMG technology removes this difficulty: with a click of a button, a well-balanced menu is freshly created each time. None of the menus are pre-generated, and with a food database of approximately 8,000 items, users have literally millions of nutritious menus to choose from.

The daily menus generated by NutriGenie, in almost all cases, are exactly at or within a few Calories of the requested caloric level. In addition, with the occasional exceptions in highly restrictive diets (below 1000 Calories/day), the menus generated are well-balanced and conform with the USDA Food Pyramid guidelines.

Characteristics of NutriGenie Menus

The generated menus are intended to show you the large variety of foods that you can eat even when you are on a diet. The menus also illustrate what a well-balanced diet should look like at different caloric intake levels.

In general, you don't have to deprive yourself of any particular food category so long as the amount you eat is appropriate for your optimal caloric consumption target. For example, even a low-calorie diet can include ice cream for dessert although the amount is more likely half a cup instead of a cup of ice cream.

NutriGenie menus are suggestions, not rigid prescriptions. Although we use a standard food database appropriate for the US population, our database also contains a number of food products from other parts of the world. This reflects the diversity of the American population as well as the culinary sophistication of our users. So you will see fruits like kiwi or mango, cheese like Camembert or Gruyere, etc., on our suggested menus. Feel free to substitute them by comparable foods that are readily available in your area.

Food Guide Pyramid Analysis

The Food Guide Pyramid was established by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the US Department of Health and Human Services. This is a new approach for managing one's diet which replaces the older basic four (or five) food groups approach.

The new food groups are organized into the shape of a pyramid. The fundamental ideas behind the Food Guide Pyramid approach are: one should eat a variety of foods and more from the lower food groups than from the upper food groups which translates into "Choose a diet with plenty of vegetables, fruits, and grain products."

Many nutrition programs do a good job in helping users keep track of their calorie consumption, fat intake, etc. Calorie Counter provides an additional important feature: its users can quickly check to see if their diet conforms to the USDA Food Guide Pyramid. Planning your weight loss diet this way is desirable because you can lose weight and, at the same time, adequately obtain the necessary nutrients through your balanced diet. You can achieve similar result using other programs and approaches, however, our graphic pyramid food analysis makes the process much simpler and enjoyable to use.
