dLife Launches the World's Largest and Most Comprehensive Online Food and Diabetic Recipe Search Tool
WESTPORT, Conn., May 15 /PRNewswire/ -- dLife, the number-one diabetes
community resource, today announced the launch of the dLife Recipe Finder and
Food Look-Up, the world's largest and most comprehensive online nutrition
database and look-up tool for people with diabetes. Visit
http://www.dlife.com/nutrition and search ingredients, prepared foods or even
fast food to get in-depth nutritional analysis for more than 25,000 foods and
access to over 10,000 diabetes friendly recipes. This revolutionary offering
creates a complete one-stop resource to help people track daily carbohydrates
in an effort to maintain an optimal diabetes diet and for overall healthy
living.
Food is the greatest challenge for people with diabetes. It's a daily
struggle to closely monitor food intake in order to control blood sugar.
dLife's Food Look-Up lets users search the massive 25,000-plus food database
by ingredient, prepared meals, and even popular fast food items. With just a
click, one gets a food's detailed nutrition breakdown of carbohydrates,
calories, sodium, protein, sugars, fats, cholesterol, vitamins, minerals, and
more.
"dLife's Food Look-Up is what patients and their educators have been
yearning for! It's a common complaint that counting carbohydrates and
understanding nutritional analysis is quite confusing. This is really a quick
and easy tool to help anyone manage their diabetes and for an overall healthy
lifestyle," said Donna Rice, MBA, R.N, CDE, and the past president of the
American Association of Diabetes Educators. "This is a breakthrough to make
it both easy and convenient for people with diabetes and their caregivers to
track and manage what they just ate, or to plan ahead for daily meals."
"dLife's Food Look-Up is not only for people with diabetes -- it's the
most thorough resource for health-oriented people interested in gaining a
better understanding of exactly what they are eating every day," added Rice.
In addition to the Food Look-Up, dLife has redesigned its search engine of
10,000 diabetic recipes at dLife.com, including a special recipe customization
tool that allows for instant re-calculation of ingredients based on serving
amounts, plus expanded recipe category search capabilities, including Low
