Editor's Verdict:

Diet sleuth is a neat little diet tracking program for PC or Mac that does just that - it calculates your daily nutrition intake in some detail, but doesn't go much beyond that.

This will no doubt suit some dieters who don't want to spend any more time than necessary at the keyboard and have little interest in tracking their BMI or BMR, don't enjoy exercise and might even cross the road to avoid walking past a gym. The food logging itself is straightforward and shouldn't make much of a dent in your busy day, foods being linked into handy groups that make them easier to select. Earlier versions of Diet Sleuth were criticized for a lack of support for users and an unintuitive interface, an example being the paucity of navigation prompts to tell you what to do next, but happily the latest release has improved in this respect.

Dieting software packages can generally be judged on how well balanced they are. For example, do they strike a good balance of diet and exercise features which are well integrated and complement each other, allowing you to estimate calories burned as well as calories consumed? On this count, Diet Sleuth manages the basic dieting features well but makes few inroads into exercise logging. It will give you a daily EER (Estimated Energy Requirements) score so you have some idea of how many calories you need to live healthily, but it doesn't go much further than that. A related question is whether all the graphs and stats are balanced out by supportive motivational and morale-boosting features that help you understand and feel in control of your diet. In this respect as well, Diet Sleuth doesn't really go much beyond charting the diet itself. This breadth of features might satisfy the needs of some dieters, but for many, especially those who know how sophisticated some of the rival packages can be, this won't be nearly enough.

On the plus side, there's a generous 30-day free trial option, which is very handy for working out whether Diet Sleuth will meet your needs. The price is lower mid-range as far as dieting software goes, but the more you compare packages (don't forget to check out No1Reviews.com's other rated products in this diet software category!) the more you'll see that you can get an awful lot more in terms of breadth of features and motivational support for a similar price if you shop around.

Diet Sleuth does what it does quite ably, but, compared to other products of similar scope, the value for money it offers falls a little short. Even if you are a dieter who is only interested in nutrition and doesn't care about exercise, there are other packages reviewed in this section that can do the same job much more cheaply.
