Myfooddata Reviews 17

For those who choose to record their daily food intake, this is the most user-friendly, flexible, comprehensive app available. It is so easy to select a food from the USDA database, change the unit (e.g., grams, ounces, cup, and many more), input or update the weight seamlessly, and add it to your daily log. In addition to the standard units found on a food label (i.e., macros, sodium, fiber, etc.), the app includes all the vitamins, minerals, carb sources, types of fat, etc. Everything that you can find on the USDA site but so much more convenient! (Note: choosing the generic version of a food will provide more of the extra data than the branded version which appears only to provide the food label info.) It is great to be able to automatically see the effect on your macro percentages whenever you add a food to your daily log. It also shows how much each food you ate contributed to each of the macro and other elements you selected. In addition it provides indexes such as blood sugar, inflammation, and amino acid completeness. To make it easier to input your meals, you can save preferred items, recipes, meals, and whole day plans for easy use another time. It also provides handy tools such as, nutrient ranking and a meal planner. Included as well are reference articles on each of the vitamins, minerals, and macros describing them and their top food sources. You can also choose which elements to track in the daily summary rather than needing to dig in to the tabs. For those interested, you can also download the results for a day, week, or longer to a .csv file to manipulate on your computer. Finally, in the newest version, the app includes a water intake monitor. As you can tell, this app does a lot, and it makes your daily input remarkably easy. I had used another app prior to this, but this one is far superior. For those committed to daily tracking of your diet, this app is the way to go!

Upon researching magnesium per se as a necessary nutrient / electrolyte / mineral--the subject article was very straightforward with known food sources and other pertinent details.

THANKS for being a superb reference for every Health Educator !

Feel free to re-post this content, without restrictions.

Wow, the site is a treasure! Goes really in depth about food, helpful descriptions, recommend!

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST NUTRITION APP EVER. Anyone can count calories. If you want your calories to count in terms of improving and maintaining good health, this is the best app. There is nothing like it. The owner of the app is responsive to questions. You can figure out how to improve your diet. I wish I were more articulate in stating how powerful this is in terms of giving a person knowledge on so many levels, not just how many calories they consumed! LOVE the recipe feature.

There is just so much information...WOW!!! They have out done themselves. A superb site for everything you want to know about the things we consume.

This trusty application has proven easy enough for the beginner and indepth enough for the most advanced nutrition tracker

Excellent app to track the nutrients and calories you are consuming

The completeness of the nutritional domains , the ability to add to list of unlisted items , simply being a part of the program.

just started using it. Lots of good information. You can even put in your own recipe and it will calculate by portion.

I found myfooddata by searching for a way to log and monitor my amino acids intake, since I felt a need to put to the test the claims about plant-based diets being sufficient. This is exactly what I need. Moreover, by logging everything I eat, I've found I avoid over-eating! Great support, too, and loads of tools that are well thought through.

This is exactly what I'd design if I had the capability. Having searched for a long time, I can say it is unique and uniquely valuable. Should start a health revolution. And the customer support is truly amazing.

Easily the most comprehensive collection of tools for macro and micronutrient tracking, with many options of convenience, like the Recipe function. The inflammation index, protein score and potassium/sodium ratio functions are spectacular time savers.

It is always best to acquire nutrients from food than supplements. I wanted to track nutrients that are not listed on Nutrition Facts panels to reduce the amount of supplements I take and have searched for years! I finally stumbled upon MyFoodData. It is truly my favorite app and I look forward to using multiple times a day. I have lost weight, reduced supplements, and feel better. Thank you!

Easy to use site with detailed information on food

They have varios serving size options so I don’t have to get my calculator out every time I look up a food

MyFoodData is one of the most reliable sources for nutritional data. I like double-checking things; these guys rely on official data and everything seems vetted. If you want a trustworthy source, this is it.
