ND's recipe analysis feature gets a big performance upgrade!

Great news for all who use Nutrition Data to analyze recipes and other food combinations. A recent performance upgrade has all but eliminated pesky server time-outs and the recipe analysis function is now running better than ever.  Thanks for your patience while we worked on the solution to this issue.

If you've never used this tool, it's a great way to get a detailed nutritional picture of what you're eating every day.  First, you'll need to set up a pantry and stock it with the foods and ingredients you need. Then, simply enter the quanties of each food in your recipe or mealplan, type in a name for your recipe (such as "Bran Muffins", or "September 14th"), and click the "Analyze Recipe" button.

You'll get a complete nutritional analysis of that combination of foods or ingredients, including Nutrient Balance, Estimated Glycemic Load, Fullness Factor, Inflammation Factor, and more. For instance, here's the analysis for a Greek Chicken Salad recipe that I entered. To keep a permanent copy of any, click "Save to Pantry".  (The Pantry Help page has all the the details.)

There are lots more improvements and upgrades in the works for Nutrition Data that I'm very excited about! I'll keep you posted on new develpments right here on the Nutrition Data blog. To keep up with all the latest, you can also subscribe to our free member newsletter at the bottom of the homepage.  If you'd like to have some input into new features, we're also looking for ND users in the NYC metro area to test drive some of our new features.
