What can you find in your profile?
After creating a profile, you will gain access to many interesting functions of the program. You will get customized daily menus including their energy and nutrition information. You can create your own menus according to your taste by selecting meals from our database as well. Being a registered user also allows you to view the recipes for meals from our database. Furthermore, you can use the nutrition calculator and the chart of physical activities recommended to you.
Recipe example
Every meal in our database includes a recipe with directions and complete nutrition information. You can view the recipe by clicking on the name of the meal or by entering a meal code in the search field in the upper right corner. Arrows in the nutrition information are a useful aid. They visually compare the nutrient content of a meal with the recommended values which are equivalent to the principles of a healthy diet.

The recipes also include information on exchange units which are particularly useful to diabetics. The biggest advantage of our recipes is the fact that recipes suitable for diabetics bear a green seal.
