QUALITY assurance
We use a complicated algorithm for menu
compiling, founded at medical
recommendations for losing weight and
proper nutrition.
Our principles are:
We created an automatic diet only to give us
some recommendations, but it couldn't be
universal for everyone. If you want to be sure
that this menu fits you, obligatorily consult
with the doctor.
No diets for children younger 12 years old! If
you use advice from the Internet, you might
do a disservice to your child. Only a doctor is
competent enough to give you some right
recommendations about nutrition.
Maximum of health recipes! Not one recipe at
our service contains alcohol, so you might
cook some of them for children as well.
Real prices from real Internet-stores. All this
is really for sale. We also adapted some
recipes for Russian food assortment.

8. HOW MUCH does it cost ?
Every day free of charge: the private office
(the thrift-box of recipes, appending your own
recipes, news feed, your personal menus, photo, your
rating and status, competitions and more other).
