Recipe Box Nutrient Calculator for Windows

This program helps you create healthy meals and recipes by calculating nutritional values, but you're on your own when adding new items.

After installation, Recipe Box Nutrient Calculator launches several windows, including the USDA Nutrient Database and a preloaded recipes window. Each food item in the database comes with detailed nutritional information, so when you create meals using preloaded items, the nutritional values are automatically analyzed. To create meals, simply drag and drop the food items and save.

It's easy enough to operate the program, and we definitely appreciated the inclusion of a quick start guide and tool tips. You can opt to add your own food items, but you're on your own in determining the nutritional values. In terms of extras, you'll find a conversion table, a calculator, and a pantry item cost. The program can also export data in XLS and CSV formats.

All in all, nutrition buffs looking for an easy way to obtain nutritional information will certainly find this title beneficial.
