You have 9 freeware Palm applications:  

http://www.freewarepalm.com/medical/medical_diet.shtml

Steer around the categories a little and you will probably find more.

I know one of the busiest (if not the busiest according to Alexa ranks)
Internet hubs for articles on health and nutrition is Mercola's site:
