Abstract

The decision to start a vegetarian diet has become increasingly popular in Brazil. About 8% of the population in state capitals or metropolitan areas claim to be vegetarian. The reasons that lead people into vegetarianism are multidimensional, such as ethic, religion and dietary restrictions. However, the transition from omnivore to vegetarian becomes difficult for the individual. Sometimes, they don’t not know which food to consume and can not maintain a balanced diet. This project seeks to help and assist these individuals to solve these problems through an easy access plataform that has a space where the user will register their diet, and doing so, be able to organize their diet and keep track of consumed nutrients.
