Health Diet Manager Palm Windows Mobileiambic today announced the availability of Health & Diet Manager v3.0 for Palm OS devices. The program does everything from tracking your health-related vitals (resting pulse, blood pressure, hours slept), calories consumed and calories expended, to helping you create an action plan for eating and exercising. ambic has also announced the availability of a new, Windows Desktop version of Health & Diet Manager.

Health & Diet Manager v3.0 is available now for Palm OS 4 and above as well as Windows Mobile devices. It sells for $19.95 and comes with a free trial period. The Windows desktop version, which allows complete data synchronization with the mobile apps, is also priced at $19.95.

Health & Diet Manager"We designed Health & Diet Manager to do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to determining things like an individual's daily energy expenditure and ultimately, the number of calories necessary to achieve stated diet goals," said Adriano Chiaretta, chief operating officer of iambic, Inc. "That means that anyone using it is freed up to focus on what's essential - making smarter choices about what they eat and types of exercise activities they should consider. And because it worked so well for Windows Mobile users, we felt compelled to make it accessible to others including the millions of Centro owners."

Health professionals and personal trainers have been touting the importance of writing down what you eat as a key factor in helping people consume fewer calories. iambic's Health & Diet Manager enables the logging of meal and exercise activities immediately, no matter where you are, using a Centro, Treo or other Windows Mobile-based smartphone. This improves accuracy and helps with overall awareness.

Health & Diet Manager can also be used to make better choices on what to eat. Leveraging the built-in database, it is easy to see the nutritional content of food items in a number of categories, and menu items from eateries like Burger King, McDonald's, Subway and Starbucks. Plus, the program's Exercise Activity logging feature can also be used to evaluate a wide variety of activities to understand the impact on calories burned.

If this is better than the PalmOS version of the Hacker's Diet tool, I'd be very surprised. Try it here:

Don't be put off by the stone-age graphics, it looks great and works great on a modern Treo (just enable colour in the prefs).
