While its drab interface won't impress you, Health Diabetic Software's tracking tools to help monitor your glucose levels and manage your medical needs will. After installation, a wizard guides you through setting up your user preferences, including your name, height, blood pressure, and blood glucose limits. The wizard also asks you for the units to measure blood, sugar, cholesterol, and temperature; but be warned, you can only configure the units of measurement once. It's easy to add new records for glucose readings, temperature, weight, cholesterol, and more. The program also has some nice features to track your medications, appointments and lab results. You'll even find a diary and meal planner.

Health Diabetic Software worked well during testing, and we were able to chart and print results for everything the program tracks. A food database, guidelines for nutrition, meal planning and exercises would have been nice touches. Nonetheless, anyone in search of an efficient diabetes management program will enjoy what this freeware provides.

Works in Linux Wine
wlsorrellsOctober 2, 2016
Pros
I've been looking for an application that runs under Wine on Linux. This WORKS. I'm tracking Glucose and Weight. It has lots of other "modules" for other health tracking.
Cons
Not as simple as I would line, but once you've used it a couple of times.. it's okay.
Summary
Works on Wine and tracks what I need. Thanks
Garbage! Trash! DO NOT INSTALL!
madmuxNovember 13, 2013
Pros
None there are no pros for installing malicious software!
Cons
Contained 47 malicious software files with HIGH priority!
Summary
This program is particularly disturbing to me as it targets people with health care issues and attempts to corrupt their computer systems. Who ever did this has a CHEEK to call it "Health"!!!
It tracks blood glucose well.
OlivehurstFebruary 16, 2013
Pros
I was surprised by the different items I can track in addition to blood glucose, such as blood pressure, bowl movements, meals, medications, and more.
Cons
Not all areas are well names or easy to figure out. "Meal Plan" is not for planning, it is for tracking what has been eaten.
Summary
This program is fine if simple tracking is desired.

Summary

More than Worth the price
martybaconAugust 23, 2011
Pros
Not all modules function for me so that explains my tongue in cheek title. The modules that do work, work pretty well and make it a useful add on to my library of utilities.
Cons
Not all modules work.
Summary
Hope it continues to evolve, there is a lot of potential here.
I could not install the program.
louisreh1May 29, 2011
Pros
I cannot give a pro to an unusable program.
Cons
When trying to install I was told two programs were missing. One was found on my hard drive. The other could not even be found on the Internet. I gave up.
Summary
very easy and complete tracking
alhtucsonDecember 10, 2010

none after one month
Summary

Makes it easy to keep health records
tmadausNovember 29, 2010

Excellent software for free
Mr. T 45August 18, 2010
Pros
Can track many different health issues such as blood pressure, blood sugar weight and etc.

Print out of results of some isn't the best to read.

If you need to track your health records, this will be the software for you.
Health 3.0.272
Kimberly14787June 14, 2010
Pros
This is the best product I have found in one program to track everything that my doctor's would like data on. I have cirrohsis of the liver and I can keep track of everything that the doctor does every one or two months.
Cons
The only con I have is that you can access a line to correct it but when you hit enter it says there is an error msg and you cannot update what you want to update.
Summary
I would recommend it for any one with Kidney, Liver or any other gestational disease. I would also recommend it for someone who is watching their weight or dieting and want to maintain a really good record.
