Review
While its drab interface won't impress you, Health Diabetic Software's tracking tools to help monitor your glucose levels and manage your medical needs will. After installation, a wizard guides you through setting up your user preferences, including your name, height, blood pressure, and blood glucose limits. The wizard also asks you for the units to measure blood, sugar, cholesterol, and temperature; but be warned, you can only configure the units of measurement once. It's easy to add new records for glucose readings, temperature, weight, cholesterol, and more. The program also has some nice features to track your medications, appointments and lab results. You'll even find a diary and meal planner.
Health Diabetic Software worked well during testing, and we were able to chart and print results for everything the program tracks. A food database, guidelines for nutrition, meal planning and exercises would have been nice touches. Nonetheless, anyone in search of an efficient diabetes management program will enjoy what this freeware provides.
