09/320037

Inventors:

Brian Robert Short - San Jose CA 95130

International Classification:

G06F 1516

US Classification:

709217, 709203, 709229, 707 3

Abstract:

A nutritional planning system comprising a plurality of databases such as: a nutrition, a user diet, a recommended diet databases and at least two programs: a nutritional analysis program and a nutritional suggestion program. This nutritional planning system is operational on a host server connected to a computer network for providing communication between the host server and a plurality of remote individual users. The nutrition planning system, further, performs the following step: a) receiving dietary information over a computer network from remote user; b) analyzing the nutritional composition of the dietary information; c) generating suggested modification to the remote users diet; d) generating suggested modifications to the remote users diet; e) providing products information which can be used to improve the remote users dietary intake; and f) automatically notifying the remote user over the electronic network of the suggested modification and remote information.
