Compare the "NB 6 Personal Plus" soft ware we offer to
professional software costing almost $600.00 or more.

If you are looking at this comparison chart you are as stubborn as I am about finding the best value for the money. I had a sever medical condition that I really wanted to do something about. This software helped me do it. I don't know the reason you are looking but I do know, if you are looking for an outstanding way to control a medical condition, want to loose weight, you are a body builder or just concerned about the health of your family, you will not find a better tool for taking total control of your nutritional choices.

In the first week of february, 2005, I was diagnosed with diabetes and had very bad numbers in my blood test. These numbers were: blood glucose 570, triglycerides 1517, A1C 20.5 the triglycerides were so high they acted a screening effect not allowing the other cholesterol numbers to be readable, my pancreas had shut down, I was badly dehydrated, potassium was way too low, my kidneys were going into renal failure, my eye lenses were filling with sugar and everything was blurry, blood pressure was way too high, I was in ketoacidosis, necrosis had begun and I was 40 pounds over weight. The doctors and nurses who treated me said I would not have survived with out treatment. I was first given 15 liters of saline solution, the last 12 of which contained potassium, given a bunch of shots in my stomach to thin my blood, treated first with insulin then with motorman, and a bunch of other medications. I don't know what they were. when I left the Seattle Veterans Administration Hospital two weeks later, I had a backpack full of meds and my blood glucose even though it was slowly coming down was still well over 200 and some times over 300. Then I met Jamie (NutriNurse) who introduced me to the book "The Insulin-Resistance Diet" and taught me a lot about a new way of cooking and eating. This brought my blood glucose down some more but still above the 140 target range they gave me when I left the hospital and well above the 70-100 range that is defined as normal. Then it occurred to me I needed a better way to track what I was eating and that made a big improvement. The little hand-held device I was using however was very inadequate. I went searching on the internet again and found the software we are offering now. Through this process; in three months I have achieved good health, totally normal numbers in my blood test, lost 40 pounds, (soon to be 50), my vision has cleared, cholesterol is normal, my doctors have taken me off all meds, and my blood glucose is holding in normal range. This can all be verified by official VA government records which I have no way of altering or effecting. This site is here because I want to share what it took me many days of research to discover, with whoever will listen. The people who I have personally taught the system, and been able to verify their results are all getting similar results.



I do not believe you will find comparable software
for anywhere near the money
and definitely, you will not find any software comparably priced
which will do as much for you!
