Date: September 20, 2010 11:49PM I was looking at fitday, but from what I can see it pretty much only lists "standard" entries for foods. Stuff like; apples, bananas, oranges, almonds, etc.
I was looking for something that you could input you own juice blends for example, & the program would give you a running total of all the nutrients. Anyone know of anything avail. that will do this? Or maybe fitday will do it & I just don't quite understand how to make it work yet... 
Oh yeah, looking for free pgm. of course! Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/20/2010 11:50PM by juicerkatz. Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

Date: September 21, 2010 12:27AM You can do this with Fitday but you just have to enter it manually and do your own calculations and math. I have a few things that I do this with so I can just enter it as one drink. I use FitdayPC though which is a bit easier..it's free if you're into pirated software.
The only other one I can think of that might do it is DailyPlate.com Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

Date: September 21, 2010 01:08AM I'm not really sure how I can enter all that manually, especially with juices, as I don't know where to get accurate values. Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

Date: September 22, 2010 06:07AM I just use whfoods.com and enter it as whole food. The only thing that really changes is the lack of fiber. Nutrients vary from fruit to fruit anyway so I don't worry about it.
If I juice 1lb of carrots.. I put it in as 1lb of carrots. There's probably more accurate charts in juicing books. I know there was one in the back of Dr. Normal Walker's juicing book..but not sure if it was for whole or juiced. Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

Date: September 22, 2010 12:44PM You can do this with www.nutridiary.com. There is a "meals" tab that allows you to create your own meals that you can save and log without having to reenter all the different foods each time. It's pretty nifty.

Date: September 22, 2010 12:48PM I dont understand how this would work, you'd have to disect the info as the fibre and such would still be there which is missing in juicing. Im sure also that some of the nutrients go with the fibre also so it probably wont be accurate. Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

Date: September 22, 2010 06:45PM I'll have to look through some of my juicing books; I believe I may have seen nutrient charts in them. If I find them, I will post where the information can be found in case any of you may want to use it as well. Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

Date: September 22, 2010 08:01PM The only problem will be that the nutrient levels will vary per batch of produce its the same with herbs and so on. Did they grow in the same soil, sunlight etc. Thats the reason why natural formulas dont always have the same nutrient content because it varys so radically compared to synthetic vitamins which are always the same.
Each batch of juice would need to be tested for nutrient content. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 09/22/2010 08:10PM by powerlifer. Re: Fitday/other site/program to track diet?

This is true which is why most produce isnt labelled to vitamin C content etc. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
