Food Advisor: Oracle for Your Pantry

by Wade Meredith on July 26th, 2006

Now this is a totally handy web app. from The World’s Healthiest Foods. You fill out a one-page questionnaire, which took me approximately one minute, and then this site kicks out an analysis of your eating habits, along with recommended recipes for you to try.

Color me impressed. Not quite as impressed as the first time I saw an AT-AT, but still impressed, none-the-less.

A sample of my results:

-Total [daily] calories from the World’s Healthiest Foods: 1209

-According to the Food Advisor you are getting approximately 60% of your total day’s calories from the World’s Healthiest Foods. To keep your nutrient intake in a generally safe zone we recommend that this percentage be at least 75%.

-Approximately 40% of your total day’s calories appear to be coming from foods that are not as nutritionally dense as the World’s Healthiest Foods. These other foods may include fast foods, pre-packaged foods, processed foods, fried foods and sweets. To keep your nutrient intake in a generally safe zone we recommend that this percentage be no more than 25%.

-The World’s Healthiest Foods represent a specially selected group of nutrient dense foods. Your chances of optimal nourishment get better and better as you increase the percentage of calories provided by the World’s Healthiest Foods!
