Ask Ingrid – Your Expert for Nutrition & Food Intolerances
Trying to avoid fructose, lactose, sorbitol, gluten, FODMAPs, or histamine – or are you pregnant or breastfeeding? Then Ask Ingrid! This app is your science-based companion for special diets and food intolerances.
New: Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Activate the new dietary mode – on its own or alongside your intolerances. When you scan a product or open a single food, Ingrid shows you with its own clear symbols what is suitable, what is recommended in moderation only, and what is better left alone during this time. And if the data isn’t solid enough for a reliable answer, Ingrid tells you that too.
The information draws on the German Federal Centre for Nutrition / “Gesund ins Leben” network and the Austrian Health Insurance Fund. It is intended as general guidance and does not replace individual medical advice.
New: Now with Free Login & Diary Feature
Create a free account and access the new nutrition and symptom diary (available for subscribers). Track how your body reacts to foods and gain even more insight into your health.
How Ingrid supports you:
Food check: Instantly see how well foods fit your dietary needs – including fructose, lactose, sorbitol, gluten, histamine, and FODMAP content.
Pregnancy & breastfeeding: A separate assessment with its own visual language – suitable, in moderation only, not recommended, or not assessable.
Product scan: Scan packaged products or search for fresh foods.
Scientifically backed: All data is based on scientific research and developed in collaboration with experts from the nmi portal.
Community insights (Pro Feature): See how others with your dietary needs rate specific foods – based on anonymized user evaluations.
