NutriSurvey
is the english translation of a professional German nutrition software
(EBISpro). It contains all useful functions which are typical for this
kind
of software (nutrient analysis and calculation of energy requirements,
planning of diets, Diet History, Food Frequency, searching of nutrients
in foods, handling of recipes,..). It gives very helpful
information with no expenses but please never forget that the
exact numbers which the program calculates are always only estimations
which are more or less correct depending on the quality of the
food data, the bioavailability and other factors.
The following pictures show some typical functions of the program.
With the Button 'NC' on the upper right side it is possible to fix the foods and
to scroll through the nutrients.
The software contains a function for a detailed energy requirement
calculation.
This is the standard printout of a food record.
For scientific studies it is possible to analyse several food records
together with a variety of options. After clicking OK the results are transferred
to Excel.
This is the diagram of a food record.
With the deficit supply function foods are suggested to fulfil deficits in
a food record.
This function enables the sorting of a food record (or several of them) for
any nutrient.
The Food Frequency method is one of the easiest possibilities to calculate
the average nutrient intake of a person.
After filling out the form above it takes only some minutes to enter the data
in NutriSurvey.
Another possibility for assessing the nutrient intake is the Diet History
method. It covers a longer period of time and the data can directly be entered
into NutriSurvey.
This function enables the search of foods (<, >, =, density) depending on the
nutrient content.
The nutrient values of the foods in the database can easily be changed and
complemented with additional information.
On the NutriSurvey website several food databases are available which can be
added to the standard food database.
In this window recipes can be modified and the nutrient content corrected
depending on the preparation of the recipe.
This is the Options window of NutriSurvey.
In this window it is possible to select from the more than 130 nutrients the
ones which should be visible in the main screen.
For the recommendations there are several files in the program which can be
selected and modified.
