The power of MyNetDiarys detailed food and exercise tracking service is its ability to document precisely what we eat, how many calories we burn and even when we eat, explains Katherine Isacks, Registered Dietitian with MyNetDiary, and people can track calories on-the-go with MyNetDiarys mobile apps for iPhone, iPad, Android and BlackBerry.
As the U.S. News recently released its top 25 diets, based on being relatively easy to follow, nutritious, safe and effective for weight loss and against diabetes and heart diseases, MyNetDiary serves as a tool that can effectively assist anyone on these diets to make them extremely effective.
For instance, the top-ranking diet, according to U.S. News, is the DASH Diet. Originally developed to fight high blood pressure, it emphasizes eating foods high in potassium, calcium, protein and fiber, while cutting back on sodium. MyNetDiary members can track all these nutrients easily by logging meals and snacks. MyNetDiary allows for tracking over 40 different macro and micro-nutrients.
Other diets, especially ones that use point system, benefit from using MyNetDiary in conjunction because it can translate the simplistic point systems into actual nutritional values people can understand. Over time, dieters will see a correlation between points, calories and particular macro-nutrients, which will equip them to make better food choices without the need to count points at all.
MyNetDiary teaches people to be able to look over a Nutrition Facts label on any food package and determine if its a healthy choice, says Isacks. While points will help people make choices based upon calories, they are not as helpful when youre standing in the grocery aisle trying to choose between two types of breakfast cereals. However, knowing how to decipher calories, fat, carbs and other nutrients on the spot can help you make the right choice. But for those who do like the simplicity of points, MyNetDiary offers a Food Score, which provides an easy to read numerical +/- score for determining a foods healthfulness.
Food journaling adds accountability to dieting, and for many people trying to lose weight, especially through diets that are unfamiliar, the act of keeping track of calories consumed and calories burned keeps them engaged with the process, which may help them succeed.
