| Research Abstract |
Recently, adolescents in Japan seem to be moving toward lifestyles characterized by unhealthy dietary habits and lower levels of physical activity. This may increase the risk factors for lifestyle disease in a later age such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and cancer. Therefore, balanced nutrition during adolescence is important for preventing future health problems.We developed "Personal Meal Handbook" as a mobile dietary management system and examined its validity and convenience. In the present study, it was proven that Personal Meal Handbook was an effective tool which can easily estimate dietary intake. We expect that the dietary habits of the adolescents are eventually improved by using Personal Meal Handbook.
Furthermore, Personal Meal Handbook might be able to be used to provide the health care services to individuals and communities.
