Fooducate: Nutrition Coachの評価・口コミ・レビュー [iPad]

I have been using Fooducate for a long time and it only gets better with each update. The best thing about Fooducate is that I don’t feel like I’m on a diet. I get to learn all about what’s in my food and how to make better choices. I get to scan all the food in my grocery store and learn about all the strange ingredients I can’t pronounce. And then I get to eat healthier and as I result, my body looks and feels better!
It really is like having a weight loss coach. I get daily reminders to motivate me to achieve my goals and daily blog posts for easy to understand and interesting food education. The food tracker is amazing for tracking each item of food that I have eaten throughout the day, with a clear calorie counter and daily summary of my nutrients and progress.
I am cooking much more than I used to and I use the healthy recipes section for ideas and inspiration. Of course, as any person who has used Fooducate will tell you, the community couldn’t be more supportive, knowledgable, and also fun! I love to check the discussion board for motivation from others' weight loss and inspiration through other members' thoughts, experiences, and often humorous pictures.
If I ever have a question about the app, I contact Fooducate through the app and they always respond promptly and are really kind!
The newest feature that I’m so excited about is the option to chat. Now, I can give and receive faster and more personalized support. Really, the app is only getting better! Thank you Fooducate!

I've never bothered writing a review before (and I have a few really great apps); but this app is so wonderful that I feel I must contribute.

I have the free version of this app. I love it. Everything is easy to access, and it's very user-friendly. I'm not sure what the pay-for app includes, but it is prob more personalized. I am sure it's worth the extra $. However, I feel I have all I need in the free app. I love the user comments, and the little tidbits of info. Eating better couldn't be much easier than this--enter a food you'd like to know more about, and get ALL the details! Is the food not as healthy as you thought/would like? Simply press the "alternatives" button, and Fooducate gives you literally up to dozens of different, HEALTHIER choices! The shopping list is also ultra-convenient! No more rummaging for that silly paper list! Just look up the foods you want, and add them! When you're shopping, you can simply tick them off the list with a press of a button. This app is wonderful. If all of America had this, and actually USED it for its intended purpose, America would be a leaner, fitter, healthier country in a matter of months. I can't even believe this is free. I'm sure one can't go wrong with the paid-for app, either. I'll prob be upgrading soon; I have weight to lose and I'm taking all the extra help I can get! This is the perfect tool!

I never write reviews, but felt I had to share my positive experience with Fooducate. A friend told me about Fooducate about 6 months ago and I immediately fell in love.

I've been struggling with my weight for over 10 years, and have tried multiple apps, as well as Weight Watchers. None were as good as this app, which has finally shown me the caloric "light".

I had always chosen the trendy diet foods, but using Fooducate I realized that they were doing me more harm than good. I couldbn't believe what dangerous ingredients are being used in our foods.

Since I started using Fooducate, I've been eating clean and the pounds have magically come off. So far I have lost 23.5 pounds, with 16.5 to go.

I use the app's tracker to make sure my daily calories are in line and to enter my daily power walks. I love the daily tips and the community forum - they have been helpful for motivation and recipe ideas too.

Last week I was at my doctor's for a checkup, and she couldn't believe how my health has improved. My blood pressure which was always borderline high has improved, and my blood sugar has also gone down, so I am no longer considered pre-diabetic!

In short, Fooducate has helped turn my life around. Big hug to the developers!

This app is perfect for watching what you eat, getting a breakdown of the nutritional content, or lack thereof, of most of the food you can find on any store shelf. This app has helped me broaden my diet by showing me healthy alternatives to a lot of the home-name brands you'll find in any store. This is one of the few apps you'll be using on a daily basis to manage your diet--and managing your diet is extremely important. This app gives alerts for and detailed explanations for things such as GMO's, artificial coloring, artificial flavored, etc... Do yourself a favor and try this app. It is customizable and is both developer and community supported. If there's a product you can't find by scanning, you can upload it to the database for everyone else. Oh yeah, and you can scan products in the store, or anytime using this app to get detailed information about the product. A must-have for anyone's phone! Also, I am rocking this app on an iPhone 4 with iOS 6. No issues creating an account or accessing anything in the app.

The foods ate app has been very helpful to watch my carbs, calories, fat, sugar, and sodium, intake. To my delight it also helps you track your calcium and other nutrients. The tips and reports they have have taught me a few things I was unaware of, and not to bost, but I am more knowledgable on health, nutrients and preventative medicine than most. The help this App gives, gives you the real time info that aides you to stay on track with your goals and needs. So you naturally being more informed make better choices. I can say it motivates you to make better choices and create healthy habits that fulfill the foodie in you as well as the inner athlete and healthy content spirit.
The one thing I would love and would be very helpful, would be to give you a detailed chart of all of your choices and their impact on you in a week's end review that you could print out as a diary to keep for medical review and to chart you plan for the future, because your plans may need to be tweaked as you become healthier.

I was very impressed with this app. It's easy to use and shows you things about your food choices that you may not have known otherwise.
The first thing that I noticed was how well the barcode scanner works. Much better than most other apps that I've used.
I've found that several foods that I thought were healthy choices were not as good as I originally thought they were. This app points out specific info about controversial additives and colors that you may want to stay away from. One thing that really hit home for my kids was when it related the amount of sugar grams that's in a product to how many teaspoons of sugar you are actually eating.
The app also gives you some great alternative that food choices. It's nice that it gives you similar items to the one you scanned and doesn't just pull some healthy choices out of left field.
Overall my entire family loves this app and is constantly using it to check out the foods they are eating and looking for some healthier choices.

I used to use myfitnesspal but kind of fell off the wagon and thus searched for a more interesting app for food logging. I came across this app and decided to give it a try and I'm glad that I did! It's an interesting app and with an update to expand the food bank I think this app is a hands down 5! I love that all foods in the food search come with pictures next to them as an icon, so you can easily spot the food you are looking for! It's really handy. Also, it gives you a GRADE on the food! Love this! And not only does it give a grade for the food it tells you WHY! dun dun dun! I love it. And the cherry on top is that it also has informative articles on food as well as it disects the pesky nutrition info label and explains to you what is really in your food. Absolutely love that. This way you know what you're eating, why it's good or not too good for you, healthier substitutions, and you learn the ingredients that you may want to omit or keep eating. Amazing!

I live to eat-but I also know that I need to watch out for whatever I put in my body. I have learned so much from fooducate! The new recipe addition is great. I have made five new recipes from this app. I love it, my kids love it and to my surprise my hubby loves it.

My husband used to be an avid junk food eater, but now uses the alternative features to find better options. Thats not to say he does not eat junk food- he still does but its usually less processed junk.


In addition to being obsessed with the alternatives
I have learned what is hidden in my food and what "healthy" products are really healthy and which aren't.
The features are great! The recipes are beyond wonderful.

The new health tracker features are awesome. I can track my sleep, moods, in addition to food and exercise.

This is the bestttt

Thank you for everything fooducate. You guys are amazing keep up the AMAZING WORK

I absolutely love this app! You can keep track of everything on a daily basis. Track what you eat, drink, track your exercise, there's even a section to make notes about your progress, how you feel etc... I like the fact that you can look up foods, drinks and even supplements. There's a barcode scanner to find foods and if the scanned product isn't in the database you can add it! I've been having some health issues so this app has proved very valuable to me. I'm not using it to help lose weight but to keep track of what I eat, supplements I take and how I feel on a day to day basis. I use it like a food diary so I can look back to see if there's something I ate that made me feel bad. The bonus is it keeps track of my weight loss as well. If you're looking to lose weight or keeping track of what you eat for other health reasons, I can't recommend this app enough. Two Thumbs Up!!!

I have lost 40 pounds with Fooducate! More importantly, I have been able to keep them them off for over 26 months now! Fooducate has opened my eyes to what’s really in so called "healthy food” and has helped me change my habits. I used to just count calories, but with Fooducate they tell you how healthy those calories are.
Most days, I make sure my daily food average is B or higher. (On weekends, I’m not as strict though ;)
I used to take pills for blood pressure, but in the last few checkups, my doctor has slowly taken me off my meds as the healthier food I’m eating has helped me get back to my old self. I can’t thank the developer enough.
What’s cool about this app is that it constantly evolves and improves. They added recipes a while ago and I noticed that this version has the Apple Watch included as well.

I am a fitness and nutrition enthusiast and I absolutely LOVE this app. I am NOT a perfectly healthy eater and I have about 15 pounds to lose still but this app helps keep me on track. It is so easy to use and readily accessible on your phone without draining your battery. The scanning of bar codes is the BEST THING EVER!! It automatically tracks for you ( all you do is put in how many servings you had) and raises your awareness of what/ how much you are eating. I love the ways you can personalize the app to your specific health goals. I also like the fact that you can see progress charted out for you. I like being able to add foods in if they are not in the database. Execellent design, fantastic ease-of-use and a truly EFFECTIVE motivator and health improver!!! I guess I really like this app, right?

Pretty nifty app to have on hand when rummaging through a grocery store. It has a nice "Alternatives" feature that helps you find healthier products related to your currently selected item. Also has some premium features which seem pretty useful which I do not actually have, but I do like that they don't bombard you with invites to purchase their premium version. All together this app is really useful one for your "health/nutrition folder" and is probably one of the apps I use the most.

------ ALSO -----
Might not contain some products, but you can send in that product with a foolproof three picture process that the app guides you through. It has updated fairly quickly with information regarding that product in my usage. (No not seconds) but takes a week or so.
Five stars for this app

I have been using this app for a couple of years now, and when I want to know about a product this is where I turn. All I do is scan the product to get nutritional insight, as well as , opinions of other users. Some of my favorite things about this app is the explanations for the grade that has been given to the foods and how it provides a product that is better Is better in Its category. Tracking overall food intake is great, but knowing exactly what I am putting my body is better! Yeah, It cool to read the labels and all, but the label don't explain what the chemicals are or how they could harm you. That's an advantage from this app. Best app ever! I am considering upgrading, but the free version has served me well!

This app has been very good for me. Even if you don't always agree with the ratings it gives, it helps you narrow the search for healthy food. I love the scan function and use it every time I go grocery shopping. It also makes getting the correct nutritional value easier. I use it every day, every meal. 60 pounds down and counting.
Update; I wrote this a couple of months ago and I use this app more than ever. I still scan quite a bit, but I'm familiar with the quality of the food now and use it mostly for items new to me. I'm down 15 more pounds for a total of 75 pounds in about 10 months. Fooducate has played a major role in my motivation, and helps me daily to make healthy food choices.

I have been using Fooducate for years to stay on top of my health goals and maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is an invaluable tool whenever I am in the grocery store looking for new foods to prepare for my family...which to stear away from and which products are a go-ahead!!! I have been using the health tracker to streamline my diet and with Fooducate's help I have finally been able to reach and maintain my ideal weight and optimal health. I love the new update where I am able to discuss and get new tips, ideas and share with a community of other like-minded foodies! Honestyl, this app has not only changed by diet, but has changed my life! Couldn't live with my Fooducate!

I love this app! I am eating mostly whole foods however not everything I eat is so the scanning ability it has is great! If you are new to eating healthier this will help you tremendously. They have a free version but I wanted to be able to get more information so I chose to pay for the app. I didn't even use the free app one day before deciding to go with the paid version. I'm not an expert but I do not want to eat food that has been genetically modified so I love the feature it has that tells me whether it is or isn't GMO. I like that it grades a product and then tells you why it got the grade. I would like foods to be verified quicker so that my final reading is accurate.

My nutritionist recommended this app to record food weight activity.
What I like is that it rates your food A to F and for the lower grades it can give you substitution suggestions that are a higher grade. Even for things like chips.
Online you can easily look up foods with best nutrition content. I'm more of a processed food person and love soup and it suggested very low sodium soups with high protein for example that got an A rating. It also allows you to photograph upc labels to find your food and enter foods from scratch if not in their database. Also found fast food and chain restaurant info easily and helped me make better choices. Even at Dunkin Donuts.

I love this app ! I think it's really the best app out there. It teaches you quantity, Quality and exactly what you're putting in your body. It really brings to your attention how much you actually are eating when you are recording it. I was surprised how many few bites here and there and how much they added up. The quality of what I thought !, I was purchasing and what I was actually getting. To be able to estimate all my daily activities to know what I actually burned. The quality of food knowledge and updates is invaluable and unlike any other app out there for A healthy lifestyle! The only improvement is to delete doubles n triples of same products.

I really like this app because of the food grades. It shocks me to realize what are Cs and Ds that I thought were better. It's only been a week and I won't say it's changed my bad habits completely, but the detail analysis it provides is very helpful/insightful. I want to subscribe to Pro, but I can't remember my Apple Restrictions password to purchase in App and there's not a Pro option to purchase directly from the App stores, so I can't (Can you fix that?). The only con I have is that the database of food is kind of limited (250k I believe), but you can always add your own recipes and they're quick about adding something that they can verify.

I love this app for logging food. It has been so easy to use. I love the grading system, the breakdown of how much real food vs processed food. Also the breakdown percentage of carbs, fat and Protein It's so awesome that it even calculates how much natural sugars and added sugars are consumed. Big bonus that it links my workouts for my other apps and automatically adds them. My only suggestion to improve it for consumers is that calculating fiber not be a upgrade but a standard feature. It is so critical for good health and a big component in the fight against obesity and diabetes to make it a standard feature would be the right thing to do.
