SuperTracker

A Good Idea

Description

Launched in 2011, SuperTracker is an interactive tool that offers comprehensive information and recommendations on nutrition and exercise. SuperTracker is replacing MyPyramid Tracker and MyPyramid Menu Planner and implements the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. With this tool, an individual can easily identify customized recommendations on foods to eat that meet one's calorie allowance and physical activity, based on health status, lifestyle, and personal preference. The tracking tool allows users to plan and assess food choices and physical activities, measure progress in diet and physical activity, and discover other healthy choices available.

Goal / Mission

SuperTracker aims to empower Americans to make healthier choices in nutrition and physical activity, based on personal preferences, lifestyle, and health status.

Results / Accomplishments

SuperTracker was released in December 2011 and implements 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. It is visually appealing and easy-to-use, replacing MyPyramid Tracker and MyPyramid Menu Planner.
