Diet management is one of the fastest-growing sectors on the Web.
The DietWatch Web site at http://www.dietwatch.com, which recently exceeded 100,000 user mark, is a case in point.
Most of this growth has taken place over the last six months since DietWatch introduced its online personal diet diary that allows users to monitor their progress with any diet or exercise regiment. Users can also track the total nutritional and caloric value of food items and meals consumed on a daily and weekly basis.
Additional Web site features include:
- a nutritional calendar;
- an exercise tracker for charting duration, frequency and intensity of workouts;
- customized reports and graphs that provide immediate feedback on diet progress; and
- community chat rooms, health news and discussion groups.
DietWatch uses a proprietary suite of interactive healthcare relationship management tools developed by SoftWatch, its parent company.
