## What is THM Food Analyzer?

Make your Trim Healthy life a little easier. Instantly diagnose foods into fuel categories with the THM Food Analyzer.

Trim Healthy Mama encourages you to learn to put meals together that will suit your own needs, challenges and food preferences. The THM lifestyle is not designed like most conventional diets; you are not instructed what to eat at every meal with portion sizes dictated to you. Since Trim Healthy Mama is geared as a lifelong plan, you will learn as you go, but after a while it becomes second nature for most people. As you're learning, you can use the THM Food Analyzer app to help you figure out which foods and ingredients are S, E, or even FP!  Have fun playing with this app and remember to always enjoy the journey to a trim and healthy you!

### 3/5 — Not working properly

*2022-08-18, version 1.6.0*

I will use the app once to look up a food and the next time the screen is blank. I have to delete tge app and add it again. The cycle keeps continuing. I have an iPhone.

### 4/5 — App not working

*2022-03-30, version 1.6.0*

Every time I try to open the app it just goes blank with the blue color heading on the top. Please can this be fixed I use this app often and enjoy it.

### 5/5 — Absolutely great for THM beginners

*2022-03-24*

This app is great for a THM beginner like me who says 35 times a day “what category does that thing fall into?!” Super nice not to have to consult the plan book every time I want a snack 👍🏼 just type in a food item or ingredient and it tells me what category it falls into, and occasionally other helpful information. Very nice 
Pretty sure most of the negative reviews were left by people who were expecting something totally different out of this app

### 2/5 — Will be better in time

*2021-02-15, version 1.6.0*

I downloaded the app and entered “cantaloupe” in the search window. Nothing came up. Will check it out again in six months or so to see if it’s improved

### 4/5 — Love- but wish

*2020-10-29*

I love this app. It’s super helpful when matching ingredients. I have been following THM for years now. The only thing I wish this app had is a food journal of sorts, this way I could simply write E for breakfast, S for lunch, and so forth. The journal would be simply so I could track my day in terms of E’s and S’s to make sure I am not mixing fuels to close to one another. Just a preference though. I know THM is not about strict rules and food tracking... so totally not that big of a deal. Overall this app is GREAT!

**Developer response:** Glad you are loving our initial food analyzer app! We have more apps coming soon!

### 1/5 — Unable to get info

*2020-08-18, version 1.6.0*

I downloaded this app and all I can do is put an ingredient in the search bar to determine the fuel type.  Is that the extent to this app?

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2020-06-03*

I was so excited when I discovered this app until I opened it up and saw what it was... it is ok and can be helpful for some things, but it isn’t what I really need and it could be developed into something awesome like many others have mentioned, and great ideas they have had as well that would be helpful!

If you do make any upgrades to this app... I would love to be able to type in a food type or two and have it pop up recipe options and the page numbers to which books they can be found or links to the recipes.  This is what I had been expecting, and it would be so very helpful! There are so many times I have not been able to plan ahead or I have a specific food type I need to use up and have a really hard time finding a recipe through the indexes... an app that could do this would be so much quicker and easier than paging through three or more books when you don’t have the time!

Thank you so much for all of your time and energy of doing the research and developing products and recipes for us, Serene, Pearl and everyone else that works behind the scenes... you are all so very much appreciated!

**Developer response:** We truly appreciate your feed and suggestions! We'll be sure to take them into consideration for future upgrades!

### 5/5 — Perfect little app :)

*2019-10-11, version 1.4.2*

This is just right for when I’m in a hurry and just want to quickly check something like butternut squash before I lather it in butter and nutritional yeast. No temptation to worry over calories or anything, just the basics, which is what I’ve loved about THM for four years!

### 2/5 — A little too basic.

*2019-09-01, version 1.4*

It’s missing the grams of fats, carbs etc. Kinda useless without that.

### 5/5 — Best Food App!

*2019-08-29, version 1.4*

I love the fact that this app literally helps me stay on plan! This is my go-to for all of my foods now!! Thank you for this amazing app!!! Super helpful for beginners and advanced THM’ers!
