Nutrihand,

Our mission is to provide easy-to-use and affordable health management technology for professionals, bussiness and their clients. The idea of Nutrihand started in 2001, when software executive Soraya Bittencourt's health started deteriorating rapidly due to diabetes. Soraya, the original creator of Expedia.com, could not find any services or tools available at the time to help control and better manage her disease. She decided to start researching why there wasn't anything available. Was it that difficult to create a software application that could help? After the challenges were identified and a potential solution was created, the initial prototype was released. Soraya was the first one to use the prototype. After tracking meals, fitness and medical information for a month, she started seeing changes in her weight and blood sugars. After one year of use, her A1C reduced by 1.3% and measured at 6%, which is very healthy for a person with type 1 diabetes. This was the turning point when she decided it was time to invest and build a company around this idea. Nutrihand was founded in Jan 2004 and our first aplication, Wellness Center, was launched in 2005. Since then, Nutrihand took off. We now deliver a number of services and applications for health care professionals, organizations and their clients. Our applications are used in health care, food industry, gyms and by device manufacturers.
