Positive View of Eating

I appreciate how this app is framed in a positive way, showing what you need to eat. Other apps focus on counting calories which creates a negative relationship to food. By eating what is listed on the app, I find it nearly impossible to eat junk (I’m just too full). After 11 years of vegetarianism, I finally kicked my dairy and egg habit. Daily Dozen and NutritionFacts.org have helped me become much healthier.

Feeling full while losing weight

Simple, easy, encouraging! I struggle to eat healthy because of ongoing mental health struggles.

This app helps me regain traction for healthy eating by suggesting these easy “plus” foods to my diet until I I am clearing 98% of them every day for nearly 2 weeks now!
