About this template
The Nutrition Diary Google Form template provides a structured, professional way for health professionals to monitor client dietary habits. By capturing consistent data on daily food intake, portion sizes, and meal timing, practitioners can move beyond anecdotal reports to identify specific nutritional patterns and areas for improvement. This template is designed to be mobile-friendly, ensuring clients can log their meals in real-time, which significantly improves data accuracy compared to retrospective recall.
