Abstract: The Philippines hosts some of the most diverse food items in the world. This is partly because of the fact that the Philippines was colonized by different countries. This results to a selection of foods which are highly varied. Out of these, only those which have the capability to evaluate the food items are aware of what the are the health benefits or risks associated with the item. Moreover, the general public aren’t aware of the implications of such hugely because the data is not readily available. The Filipino Foods Online System is developed in such a way that all users are able to interact freely and is not restricted in terms of speaking what is on their mind. The general public is able to query the system for food items and diets which they might find suitable for their health needs. They can also ask the nutritionists regarding food items or even ask them to evaluate their own food items. The nutritionists are also able to respond to these queries through the system. They are also able to post their evaluations or their knowledge of certain diets in the system. The corporate representatives similarly are able to make an entry of their products in the system and be able to have a voice with regards to defending or affirming their nutritional content claims. The system administrators ensure that the system functions normally and not behaving erratically. However, this system is not a clinical advising system, it is just a repository of nutritional information and other pertinent data for efficient dissemination. A consultation with a real nutritionist is still the best thing to do when confronted with a health issue.
