The purpose of this study was to identify the need
for a food analysis software that will aid the
professionals in their work. The study also aimed
to assess the needs, and expectations of the
people (dieticians, researchers, teachers and
students) regarding the food analysis software.
The study was conducted in Karachi. The subjects
were Dieticians, Researchers, Teachers and
Students. The data was collected through
interviews conducted with the help of a
questionnaire.
The results showed that a very small percentage
of respondents use software for Diet Analysis but
all the respondents (100%) considered the need of
Pakistani Diet Analysis Software. The respondents
wanted it to be user friendly and preferred the
software to work using both food composition
tables (FCT) and food exchange list. They prefer to
see comprehensive results that include values for
calories, fuel nutrients, vitamins and minerals.
It can be concluded from the responses that
Pakistani Diet Analysis Software is a much needed
tool for the Dieticians, Students, Teachers and
Researchers
