All food and beverage popups indicate whether the item is a plant, good prebiotic, probiotic or ultra-processed food (UPF) to inform a healthy diet and whether they are high or low FODMAP per serving where data are available to support people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
Useful lists show saturated fat content of foods per 1oz or 100g and serving, which can be toggled from high to low & low to high. Also useful UPF, unprocessed plant, prebiotic, probiotic, high & low FODMAP food lists.
Some months ago I was told I had a high cholesterol/saturated fats count and needed to bring it down. As an aide I downloaded this app. I have to say it’s been invaluable in helping me to get my levels down. Very easy to use and keeps a record of all my saturated fat consumption. Simply scan your food label and enter the number of servings you had. It really is simple. Not only have my saturated fats levels fallen to “excellent” but I’ve lost weight too. A highly recommended aid in lowering saturated fats/cholesterol.
