Meal Planning software

Overview

Do you spend hours designing customized meal plans? Are more and more clients requesting meal plans that incorporate various taste preferences and ethnic cuisines? After extensive market research and endless customer requests we have created a meal planning software program with our clients in mind.

Long gone are the days when meal plans were simply based on a calorie level or health factor. As the popularity of ethnic foods grows in the United States, meeting clients' taste preferences while addressing their health concerns is becoming vital. That is why we have incorporated Asian, Indian, Spanish and Italian foods into our calorie and diet specific meal plans.

In order for you to best utilize our pre-set meal plans, we have made them easily accessible in our NutriDIET Pro Meal Planning software. Finding the perfect plan for your client is easy with our software, designed specifically for busy health and fitness professionals. Along with our meal plans, the software incorporates client management capabilities and health and wellness handouts.

With just a few clicks of the mouse you can populate a list of meal plans that will meet your clients' needs. The software contains meal plans for calorie levels from 1,200 all the way to 3,000 calories, health conditions such as heart disease and diabetes, and different taste preferences such as Asian, Indian, Italian, Spanish, Vegetarian and Vegan diets. We have even designed meal plans for people on the go with meals centered on menus from popular restaurants such as PF Changs®, Chipotle® and Chili's®.

Our menus contain practical and delicious meals, a variety of food options and recipes to help make your life simpler! We know the importance of flexibility, after all not everyone likes the same foods, so our meal plans also include easy to use food lists to help with substitutions.

Why spend hours creating meal plans? Our Registered Dietitians have done the work for you! We have even compiled healthy living handouts in a convenient PDF format so you can print or email them. Eliminate the time you would spend on researching formulas, recommendations and manual calculations by using our handouts, built in calculators and client management tools.

Software Navigation

So how does it work? When you launch the program you will see an easy to navigate welcome screen that will allow you to update client profiles or search for recipes, health handouts and menus. Finding the perfect meal plan for your client is just as easy. After clicking the menu tab you will simply use our drop down menus to select the desired meal plan category, calorie level and time span you would like. You can use one of the drop-down menus, or all three to narrow your search as much as you'd like. As you select your search criteria from our drop-down menus a list of meal plans will automatically populate so that you can have a list of plans to choose from. Double-click the plan you would like and the PDF will open for you to view, save, e-mail or print.

How others are benefiting from the meal planning software?

• Professionals working with vegetarians and vegans have used our software to offer their clients nutritious and delicious vegan and vegetarian meal plans.
• Dietitians, nutritionists and health professionals that work with clients have used our meal planning software as a reference guide. Our plans can be used as-is, or as a starting point for more customized meal plans. Our food substitution lists make customizing plans easy! If a client is allergic to a certain food, or doesn't like something, our food lists can be used to swap foods of similar nutritional value. Don't want to manually swap out meal plan items?

Need more customization

What if I want to customize meal plans for my clients?

You can certainly do that, however our meal plans are provided in PDF format and the nutrition summaries have been calculated based on the meal plans we have put together. So, if you would like to swap out certain foods we have provided food lists. These lists are provided by category, such as vegetables, fruits or snacks, and list the nutritional content of each item. This makes it easy to locate items with similar nutritional content so that any item swaps will not greatly affect the nutritional content of our meal plans. You will not be able to type any changes into our meal plans since they are in PDF format. However, you can type the meal plans into another program and make changes from there, or you could simply cross foods out and write in your substitutions.

Looking for a bit more customization? We also offer Nutritionist Pro™, a comprehensive nutrition analysis software program that allows you to create fully customized meal plans, complete with nutrition information, from scratch! In addition, you will be able to track your clients' progress with the program's extensive diet analysis capabilities. If you work with clients on a regular basis and need to create customized meal plans often, you might think about purchasing both programs. Many of our clients like to enter the contents of our NutriDIET Pro meal plans into Nutritionist Proä and customize from there. This saves you the time and hassle of creating your meal plans from scratch!
