"...Fooducate is like having a dietitian on speed dial..."
Fooducate analyzes information found in each product's nutrition panel and ingredient list. You get to see the stuff manufacturers don't want you to notice, such as
- excessive sugar
- tricky trans fats
- additives and preservatives
- high fructose corn syrup
- controversial food colorings
- confusing serving sizes
- calories per actual serving size
- and more...
Just pick up a product from the shelf, scan it, and let Fooducate do the rest.
Fooducate is NOT funded or influenced by food manufacturers, supplement companies, diets, or any sort of magic diet pill.
Notes:
* Requires Android OS version 2.2 or higher, touch screen, and camera (Not tested on Android tablets)
* Works only with US products

Nice app, but camera function freezes my phone, then turns the screen black forcing me to remove the battery . Very annoying . Fix it, please.

I love this app, it helps me make better decisions at the store where I need it! I love the option to add products to their database.

I used to love this app, but now the new update won't let me type something in and search. After I type the item in, what do I hit to search?
