Chunichi Manufacturing Co., Ltd. <5941> announced that at the 71st Annual Meeting of the Japan Nutritional Improvement Association held at Osaka Public University on September 6, 2024, the company introduced their product, 'Hakareco.' Over 2,500 people participated in this conference, where they held a research free gathering on nutrition management, introducing 'Hakareco' as a practical product for nutrition management.
'Hakareco' is a product that helps understand the actual amount of food consumption by recording and digitizing meal portion sizes and leftover amounts, contributing to appropriate nutrition management. The presentation at the Japan Nutritional Improvement Association's academic general meeting this time addressed the important theme of nutrition management for children, providing a valuable opportunity for 'Hakareco' to be evaluated as a support tool. The company will continue to contribute to solving issues in various fields such as schools, hospitals, welfare facilities, and workplaces.
Furthermore, the company plans to release the food education guidance support software 'Meal Report' in April 2025, which will be useful for nutrition assessment and menu creation. By linking the information of Hakareco and the nutrition management software, it will be possible to generate information tailored to specific purposes, such as nutritional evaluation for school lunches and information related to food education for children.
