Thank you Dr Greger!

Such a simple yet effective app with no nonsense to be found. I use it everyday.

Great way to keep track of key foods

I love this app so much because at my age I need a reminder. I always have my phone so check if I have had my flex or berries helps me self correct with the next meal.

Nutrition tracking for busy people

I don’t like the trend of all these calorie trackers where they try to get you to be granular with your health data. I get that calories are important for burning fat, but it’s difficult to get an accurate calorie count when you have a million other things going on and eat home-cooked meals with no access to the nutrition labels for all ingredients used.

I feel like Apple Health sets this trend where every tracker has to have an integration where you track your calories, protein, carbs, etc. down to the molecule. (And no, AI doesn’t make it any easier.)

Which makes apps like this one a breath of fresh air. In a sea of Health integration slop, here’s an app that gets it: users aren’t going to work 24/7 as data entry workers without pay, even if it’s for their health.

Will this help people lose weight or be healthy?

Maybe some people need the granular tracking that traditional calorie trackers provide.

I, however, am willing to take a chance on this simpler model and see if the habits I build from it kill hunger and craving enough that I can burn fat without thinking so much.
