User Profiles are next
As you may know the recommended daily allowances aren’t showing up. Calculating the proper allowances is rather involved. To do this properly, I am creating user profiles which allows you to enter custom information like weight, height, sex, pregnant?, lactating? and physical activity level.
This data will be plugged into a formula resulting in custom RDAs. I will probably provide a default male and female user in case you don’t care for that level of personalization.
Having an engine to calculate this will allow me to add additional diets instead of just the government recommended one, such as Atkins and South Beach.
After that, I will work on the amino acids and fatty acids which are not currently displayed.

Let me give a brief history. I bit off more than I could chew and attempted to design a state of the art “Nutrition Facts”, which left me endlessly programming in circles. Eventually programming became so tedious I simply stopped.
Currently, I do have a simplified version of Nutrition Facts that is 75% done, but development of that is on hold. I also have a web version that I am actively working on. I won’t promise a date or even attempt a prediction, since as you can see, history will prove me unworthy of such. Just stay tunned and join the mailing list or RSS feed and I will notify you when the Online Nutrition Facts is available.
I will be posting articles regarding the development of the new online NutritionFacts, so check out MichaelSilver.us for more technical and timely updates.
Also, if you previously signed up for the mailing list, please do so again. The email addresses were lost due to a hard drive failure in my web server. I am still going through backups, but it is doubtful I will recover them.
The web site has also been cleaned up, fixing dead email links and removing older content.

I have been putting some time into Nutrition Facts and an initial release of version 1 is upcoming. It won’t have all features active but it is a base from which I can role out new features easily. Stay tuned.

In order to allow for a variety of upcoming software I have expanded the site. Nutrition Facts is still available, and I am (still) working on a new release. Unfortunately my job has kept me quite busy.
