## What is Glyc?

Glyc tells you the glycemic load of a recipe before you eat it.

Paste a recipe link, paste the text, or photograph a recipe page with your camera. Glyc reads the ingredients, works out the nutrition per serving, and gives you a glycemic load number with the math shown — so you can see how it got there instead of taking it on faith.

WHAT YOU GET
• Glycemic load and a low/medium/high rating for any recipe
• Full nutrition per serving: calories, carbs, fiber, protein, fat, sugar, sodium, cholesterol
• "Show the math" — the per-ingredient breakdown behind every number
• Honest gaps: when an ingredient can't be calculated reliably, Glyc says so rather than guessing

THREE WAYS IN
• Paste a link from any recipe site
• Paste recipe text directly
• Photograph a printed recipe, cookbook page, or recipe card
