Screenshots: Asianfood nutrition calculator II
A fellow KVPUGer, peterscm, has completed the stand-alone conversion of the Asian Food Calorie database.
Now with a PalmOS (sorry no PPC version!) PDA, you can carry with you and calculate how much calories, cholesterol, Na+, fibre etc you’ve ingested after pigging out on that Asian meal. I think this is a useful resource since there are precious few databases on Asian food nutrional values.
Here are some screenshots:
The splashscreen:
Food items are selected either from the drop down list or by keying in the name of the food at the bottom and the program will jump to the food item:
For each item, you can input several amounts of each item (translation: say you pigged out and ate 20 sticks of satay instead of 4):
You can view the damage for each item:
And here’s the best part, peterscm has included a Total function and you can export all of these values to Palm’s Memo:
Where to get this program? It’s not yet released so stay tuned. If you are interested, please leave a comment here or email me.

The Asian Food Nutritional Calculator is free but does not come with a Palm PDA which is a separate purchase
There are free BMI calculators and probably the best all-round medical calculator for Palm PDAs is Medcalc which you can find in the Best Freeware Page

IS it possible to publish a chart of the standard calories for those food? such as 1 char kueh teow (1 serving) = xxxx kcal, 1 serving of chicken rice = xxx kcal etc, just an estimation.
besides that, is this possible to run on window mobile or others plamform which utilize java technology?
We have no plans at present for a new versions of this calculator but thanks for your suggestion.
You could run this on Windows mobile or even a Windows desktop
