Diet or medicine management device

摘要

A device for managing a diet or the consumption of medication comprises a board formed with a plurality of horizontal cut-out portions which define a plurality of horizontal guide rails therebetween. A plurality of slide members are removably received by the guide rails and slide thereon. A legend, attached to the front face of the board, identifies the major food groups and contains examples of foods falling within each food group and serving suggestions that constitute a single portion of the particular food group. When an individual consumes a food, a slide member from that food group is moved from the right to the left hand side of the guide rail to indicate consumption. Alternatively, the legend contains a list of medicines to be consumed by an individual, their dosages and frequency of administration. When a particular medicine is consumed, a slide member is moved from the right to left hand side of the guide rail to indicate consumption. A series of magnets extends from the rear face of the board, allowing attachment to a magnetic surface.
