Description
Natural Food Guide focuses on fresh and healthy foods. It is the perfect companion for everyone who loves to cook. You can quickly create your own recipes and estimate their nutritive value, or keep a detailed food diary. Whether you are an athlete who wants to push their body to its limits, or you want to lose weight or prevent health issues – nutrition is the key to a healthy lifestyle!
The app is stuffed with information and provides answers to countless questions related to nutrition: What is the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio of linseed oil? What is the glycemic index of basmati rice? Which foods contain a lot of calcium and magnesium at the same time? What are the best sources of vegetarian protein?

Ratings and Reviews
Almost great
I gave this app four stars because it’s missing one key feature. It doesn’t let me create a “favorites list”. It would be cool if I could keep all the foods that I’ve looked up and like in one place, instead of having to write them down in a note pad. Then I would give it five stars!!!
Only General Foods and Not Brand Accurate
This app would be amazing, except it can’t be because the ingredients in the database are general ingredients and not brand specific. This will cause gross inaccuracies in any nutritional facts you are attempting to calculate. I tried to search a specific oat milk and they had one option only for all oat milks. There are at least 7 I can think of with vastly different nutritional facts. Which one is what they’re using on the app?? I have no idea how they choose what 1 oat milk nutritional facts they should use to cover the vast variety and nutritional contents out there.
This app can only work if you know exactly which brand and only use the exact brand they are using for the 1 option per food database.
Finally! Comprehensive data base with glycemic load
I’ve been looking for “this” for a long time! I finally learned, after many decades of life, about the interaction between high levels of glycemic load (which is related to, but not identical with Glycemic Index) and stubbornness in burning fat. And because having a very low glycemic load creates other health problems, this tool is indispensable in staying in the appropriate GL range for me, to control my fat burning capabilities. Thank you!
