About

We are focused on development and application of IT tools for nutritional assessments, nutritional labeling & profiling, and diet/meal/menu planning, aiming to revolutionize how nutritional information is gathered, analyzed, and utilized. These tools leverage advanced technologies, including databases, algorithms, and user-friendly interfaces, to provide comprehensive insights into dietary intake, food composition, and meal planning.

  1. Nutritional Assessments: IT tools in this domain, such as CAPNUTRA's Diet Assess and Plan (DAP- https://dap-app.org/),,) are designed to accurately measure and analyze dietary intake data. These tools utilize EuroFIR standardized food composition databases and sophisticated algorithms to evaluate nutrient consumption, identify dietary gaps, and support public health policies. The integration of FoodEx2 food coding system and EFSA EU Menu methodology ensures consistency and reliability in food consumption data collection and interpretation.

  2. Nutritional Labeling & Profiling: Our tools developed for nutritional labeling and profiling help standardize the presentation of nutrient information on food products. They automate the calculation of key nutrient values and compliance checks against regulations, aiding manufacturers and stakeholders in ensuring transparent and informative labels. Nutritional profiling involves algorithms that categorize foods based on their health impact, assisting in public health messaging and policy-making.

  3. Diet/Meal/Menu Planning: Advanced digital tools for diet, meal, and menu planning support both individual users and institutions like hospitals, schools, and catering services. These tools consider nutritional needs, dietary guidelines, and user preferences to generate balanced meal plans that meet specific health goals. They provide tailored dietary recommendations, ensuring nutrient adequacy and addressing specific health concerns like diabetes, obesity, and micronutrient deficiencies.

Overall, these IT tools enhance the accuracy of dietary assessments, improving transparency in nutritional labeling, and supporting informed diet planning and public health interventions. They are adaptable for client/project needs.
