Toronto, ON Governments are looking for ways to help the general public be healthier and now we see governments everywhere putting policies in place that mandate chain restaurants to provide caloric information on menus to the public.

In order to provide calorie or nutrition information of their recipes, food service providers must send their dishes to a lab to get analyzed, which is a timely and high cost task to take on.

Sonia Couto is the founder of MenuSano, a Nutrition Analysis Software that allows food service providers like restaurants, bakeries, food manufacturers, chains to conduct their own food analysis using MenuSano’s technology.

MenuSano eliminates the need to send food to a lab to be analyzed or hire a full-time nutritionist. MenuSano technology lets the user do it all themselves. For a nominal subscription fee, restaurants and other food services sign into the MenuSano system, upload their recipes, and conduct food analysis right on site. They can even print out labels for their products with correct calorie & nutrition information.

“MenuSano was created as a health intervention tool to address the rising rates of disease and obesity in our population that can be managed and prevented with nutrition, “say’s Sonia. Nutrition Analysis SoftwarePeople are health-conscious and care about what they're putting in their bodies. MenuSano allows the food service industry to contribute to community health by providing nutrition information to their customers at the point of sale.”

Most importantly, MenuSano is user-friendly and cost-effective.

“We just want to encourage the restaurants and food service clients to use the tool and be part of this social change,” says Sonia.
