New: Meal Genius. Scan each food, build your plate, and see one total glycemic load for the whole meal, plus which item adds the most.
Point your camera at any nutrition label and get an instant, AI-powered glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) estimate, right in the grocery aisle.
No barcode database. No manual logging. Glycemic Genius reads the carbs, fiber, sugars, and serving size straight off the package and tells you how that food may affect your blood sugar, in seconds.
WHY GLYCEMIC GENIUS
• Instant GI & GL estimates from a photo of any nutrition label
• Works on real packaged foods — no waiting on database matches
• Compare two products side by side, with portion adjustment, and pick the steadier choice
• Save foods to your Pantry and revisit recent scans anytime
