Find out what your food is really all about!
I have not always been the most responsible eater. I tend to like sugars and fats, and I almost never check the nutritional information on the packages in the store. So Fooducate - Eat Healthy Diet is perfect for me. This app uses your phone's camera to scan barcodes on food packages to give you an evaluation of their contents. You'll get a short list of stats, including number of calories per serving, additional dieting information, and a letter grade for its overall place in the food chain. Even better, the app provides healthier alternatives you can check out by tapping a tab. You'll also get access to Fooducate's daily tip blog, which goes in-depth on food-related issues. This is a wonderful app that anyone who cares about their diet should have -- and more to the point, everyone should care about their diet. -- Keoni C.

'...Fooducate is like having a dietitian on speed dial...'
Fooducate analyzes information found in each product's nutrition panel and ingredient list. You get to see the stuff manufacturers don't want you to notice, such as
- excessive sugar
- tricky trans fats
- additives and preservatives
- high fructose corn syrup
- controversial food colorings
- confusing serving sizes
- calories per actual serving size
- and more...
Just pick up a product from the shelf, scan it, and let Fooducate do the rest.
Fooducate is NOT funded or influenced by food manufacturers, supplement companies, diets, or any sort of magic diet pill.
