ABSTRACT:
A process for evaluation of an individual's food choices based upon selected factors and dietary guidelines is disclosed. The DINE System provides a method and apparatus which allows an individual to determine how well or poorly the person is eating. The invention analyzes the food an individual eats and determines certain predictor and follower nutrients that will give rise to an assessment of how a person's diet matches with various dietary guidelines established by governmental and/or other entities. The invention provides the results of the analysis to the individual complete with messages regarding over or under consumption of key nutrients so that the individual can correct the diet thereby resulting in better eating habits. The invention also gives the individual a "score" by which the person can immediately assess how well he or she is doing with respect to the various guidelines. The higher the number the better the diet.
